Social media and media are managed by the Propaganda Department

Weibo, or Sina Weibo, is a Chinese microblogging site, and one of the country’s biggest social media platforms. In March 2021, it recorded 230 million daily active users on average.

Colin Wo explained that Chinese social media and media are managed by the Propaganda Department. As for cracking down on Bitcoin transactions, the official media are working together and because of that the current ban on social media accounts and content involving cryptocurrency is continuous. However, the Central Bank’s crackdown on exchanges, the security department’s crackdown on money laundering, and the energy bureau’s crackdown on mining have not yet been issued it is very unpredictable what will happen next.

Wu speculates that this move could be the latest China has made against the crypto space in recent weeks. On May 18, the country made an about-face in its accepting stance towards cryptocurrencies, deciding instead to ban Chinese financial institutions from participating in crypto services.

Not the first time Weibo takes down accounts from crypto influencers

Weibo has not stated why these accounts were targeted, despite the fact that certain other well-known Weibo accounts with hundreds of thousands of followers are still accessible. However, the majority of the suspended accounts today had phrases like"bitcoin," "btc," "blockchain" and "coin trader."

This isn't the first time Weibo has taken down accounts belonging to cryptocurrency influencers or businesses. It previously restricted Huobi, OKEx, and Binance accounts, as well as those of Justin Sun, the founder of Tron, and Changpeng Zhao, the CEO of Binance.

Yes. We've consistently identified winners across multiple cycles. Bitcoin under $1,000, Ethereum under $70, Solana under $10, WIF from $0.003 to $5, PopCat from $0.004 to $2, SPX blasting past $1.70, and our latest pick has already 200X'd since June 2025. Everything is timestamped and public record.

No. When we founded Cryptonary in 2017 the market was new to everyone. We intentionally created content that was easy to understand and actionable. That foundational principle is the crux of Cryptonary. Taking complex ideas and opportunities and presenting them in a way a 10 year old could understand.

Signal vs noise. We filter out 99.9% of garbage projects, provide data backed analysis, and have a proven track record of finding winners. Not to mention since Cryptonary's inception in 2017 we have never taken investment, sponsorship or partnership. Compare this to pretty much everyone else, no track record, and a long list of partnerships that cloud judgements.

We share highly sensitive, time-critical research. Once it's out, it can't be "returned." That's why membership is annual only. Crypto success takes time and commitment. If someone is not willing to invest 12 months into their future, there is no place for them at Cryptonary.
