Crypto.com is the latest victim of the UK’s ASA advertising ban series
The UK Advertising Standard Authority (ASA) has Crypto.com added to the list of exchanges and companies to which the regulator has prohibited advertising. The ASA wies Crypto.com to stop the placement of two mobile ads that advertised the easy purchase of cryptocurrencies and suggested that it was easy to make a profit with digital assets.
According to the regulator, the exchange had failed to clearly demonstrate to potential users the risks associated with the advertised products. In addition, the crypto company is accused of not pointing out the restrictions on the acquisition of cryptocurrencies with credit cards and taking advantage of the lack of market understanding of target customers.
Other high-level crypto trading platforms that have already been banned include Coinbase and Kraken. Although Crypto.com having already settled the matter and withdrawn the ads, it has lodged with the ASA and defended that its marketing ads did not violate the said regulations.
