A user in Reddit notified the Crypto community about this new Twitter blunder. The post in the link was submitted hours ago and when I read it I checked instantly Twitter, but my search results were fine.
However, I just tried again to use "bitcoin cash" while searching Twitter and there were no results for me either.
I don't exactly know what Twitter is trying to achieve but censorship and low visibility for Bitcoin Cash seem to be a tactic in many media. Of course, we all remember the Jack Dorsey tweets endorsing BTC and just that, and how busy he is lately trying to become relevant in the Bitcoin community.
Twitter was always about censoring voices and suspending accounts, very similar to the practices of the Blockstream-BTC community. In a previous article, I explained my thoughts on Twitter and how it operates. I had the suspicion that the BTC community will try to infiltrate it and create fake impressions on Bitcoin Cash, trying to limit access to the information we provide. It was more than obvious that this is what they would do, as BTC shills and Blockstream sockpuppets have become Twitter's main attraction.
It is all about not allowing the truth to be told and limiting the voice of reason. You can hide the truth and censor but the truth will find its way. Slowly but steadily, the Bitcoin Cash blockchain gains traction and increases in usage. More people see today in Bitcoin Cash what Bitcoin skipped by not upgrading and sticking to small blocks. The small-block people are those that want to keep Bitcoin limited, as without scaling companies like Blockstream can promote Liquid and Lightning networks as the only viable solution.
While the BTC community has embarked on a crusade to pump their bags, labeling everything else that challenges its dominance as shitcoin and scam, Bitcoin Cash is the solution to the scaling issue of Bitcoin.
The video below explains everything. Bitcoin is a theoretical but impractical cryptocurrency, and Bitcoin Cash is the actual decentralized digital cash, a P2P electronic money network that embraces innovation and understands what the world needs.
Bitcoin Cash - It's Just Money, Bro, is probably what Twitter is trying to avoid.
The ease of making transactions with Bitcoin Cash and the strategic importance of a currency that is already preferred by tens of thousands of merchants around the world. Bitcoin Cash is the financial revolution. Yet Twitter doesn't like it, since its business is based on pleasing the Bitcoin maximalists.
Not to forget the latest attempts to censor Kim DotCom's interview in a Bitcoin maximalist's nest, and Jimmy Song breaking in the conversation accusing Kim of lying and calling him a scammer. A usual methodology the Bitcoin YouTubers are using to defame Bitcoin Cash.
The conflict of interests between Twitter and Square's Cash App probably makes Dorsey think he can censor Bitcoin Cash, just as he did previously with anything he disapproved, even making decisions based on his political beliefs.
Shadow-banned means you can write anything but nobody except your close followers will see it if they enter your profile. We can all thank Twitter and Jack for once again he reminded us his platform should not be trusted for anything. It is a marketing tool but one that has acquired too much power.

*Bitcoin Cash Hub is an excellent idea by the person I can call an internet friend @CryptoMax . We can all try to give a boost to this community and create high quality articles.
Good article. Platforms like Twitter are not the friend of cryptocurrency in the long run.
