I don't agree with his opinions but he had a very good and informational channel about trading and TA. He never told people what to do just anlysed the charts and gave his opinions.
The hyperwave theory he's following is questionable and Tone is only right in maybe half of his predictions, but he's not doing anything wrong. He's just like any other analyst.

How does his channel break the TOS?

I hate how they never explain which exact point those banned people broke so that they cannot even argue their case.

He should get it reinstated but what was the actual point of them disallowing to be on their platform completely is a mystery.
You have people who are outright verbally saying on their youtube videos they are the worst and go out of their way to advertise and promote other channels so to view their videos on those platforms instead. Yet their channels still exist.
Berwick is one of them.

And yeah, thanks for the congratulatory mention.
I was thinking about putting up a thread about getting there with my leveling up to platinum of another site I frequent.
But this had to wait since havent been in the mood lately to post such a thread just yet.
All of the outbreak this and lockdown that has me kind of in a equilibrate state of mind in the past three weeks.

I am not too sure what he broke in youtubes terms of service.
But of course the cryptocurrency media has noticed it too and have reported on it with in the last 30 minutes.

I have seen this on twitter, actually this is not the right thing to do for Tone Vays because he has so many useful content on youtube, he teaches about cryptocurrency, about trading, investing, etc. I really don't know why youtube ban his account. Maybe he disobeyed some of the rules of the youtube, I really don't think why youtube keep restricting content about cryptocurrency, well in fact cryptocurrency is so useful in our everyday life, it is so useful especially when some crisis happens like this pandemic virus COVID-19, we can use cryptocurrency to buy foods, or any stuffs we want online.

I hope that the channel of Tone Vays will be recovered soon, I have learned so much things in his channel. I hope youtube will give him another chance.

I really don't think we should bring out our pitchforks just yet, and I don't think this is one of those "Google hates bitcoin/crypto" incidents. Videos concerning trading in general have always been in the gray area anyway as far as I know, as this isn't the first trading channel I've seen had such problems. I've seen non-crypto trading channels have problems in the past too.

EDIT: and yea it's back. As per expected.

I think youtube is not giving any reasons for deleting channel in their platform.

It's a nationwide ban hammer that's why many influencers not just Tone Vays are bitching around because they all got booted out.

Crypto Beadles^[1] was one who got the hammer ban in December, but it looks like it is already up and running and so is Chris Dunn^[2].

false alarm, probably just a misguided auto-ban. his channel has already been reinstated and he is live streaming right now: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=w6IXCrpUmng

this. specially when these so called analysts end up giving a lot of bad advice to those who follow them and then they end up losing some money in the process, the angry followers end up reporting their videos and since there is always something wrong in their content they get banned or at the very least the video removed.

Ok it seems that he is back in business, he seems that Youtube is quick in responding to those ban accounts. Maybe this time, human intervention is needed. They may rely on their algorithm, but at the end of the day, a simple message to them will help those crypto influencers get back their account the soonest.

Youtube quite often deletes videos and even channels due to their algorithms, and I kinda understand them - they host billions of videos, it's impossible to assign real humans to manually review all reports. In the past there was less such incidents, but then people start complaining that Youtube hosts all sorts of bad content, and advertisers reacted to it negatively, so Youtube, which has always been struggling to make profit, made their system that leads to problems like the one that happened here.
