百度已撤掉比特币和其他虚拟货币广告 - 比特币,百度 - IT资讯

8月26日晚间消息，彭博社今日报道称，百度已悄无声息地移除了比特币和其他虚拟货币广告，此举可能是为了防止在线欺骗。

从本周四开始，百度就撤走了比特币和其他虚拟货币的相关广告，现在我们在推广链接上已经看不到原来这些广告的踪影，中国两大比特币交易所OKCoin和Huobi高管对这一消息加以证实。

那么为何百度要撤下相关广告呢？

彭博社称原因主要有两方面，一是防止网络诈骗的发生，二是政府对于虚拟货币的支持力度不大，或者说不不太支持。而中国中央银行此前也对比特币明确表态，称比特币不是真正的货币，不允许其进入相关的金融系统。

此前，比特币交易所Bitfinex发布公告称交易所发现安全漏洞，因此暂停交易，此次黑客攻击导致一些用户多达119756比特币被盗，总价值约为7500万美元。受此消息影响，全球比特币价格应声下跌25%。
