  If you don't want to use the YouTube API, another option is to use the YouTube embed code. You can find the embed code by clicking on the 'Share' button below the YouTube video and then selecting the 'Embed' option. Copy the generated code and paste it into your HTML document where you want the video to appear. This method is simple and doesn't require any additional coding. However, keep in mind that you won't have as much control over the video player compared to using the YouTube API.

  If you prefer a simpler approach, you can use the <video> tag in HTML5 to embed a YouTube video without using an iframe. First, you need to get the direct URL of the YouTube video. You can do this by right-clicking on the video and selecting 'Copy video URL'. Then, use the <video> tag in your HTML document and set the 'src' attribute to the YouTube video URL. This method allows you to have more control over the video player and customize its appearance using CSS. However, keep in mind that this method may not work on all browsers and devices, so it's important to test it thoroughly.

  When embedding a YouTube video in HTML without using an iframe for your cryptocurrency website, it's important to consider the page loading speed. Videos can significantly slow down the loading time of your website, especially if they are large in size. To optimize the loading speed, you can use lazy loading techniques, such as loading the video only when it's visible on the screen or using thumbnail images that can be clicked to play the video. Additionally, compressing the video file and hosting it on a fast and reliable server can also help improve the loading speed.

  If you're looking for a quick and easy solution, you can use a YouTube video thumbnail image and link it to the YouTube video. This way, when visitors click on the thumbnail image, they will be redirected to the YouTube website to watch the video. To do this, you can take a screenshot of the video and use an <img> tag in your HTML document to display the thumbnail image. Then, wrap the <img> tag with an <a> tag and set the 'href' attribute to the YouTube video URL. This method doesn't require any additional coding and ensures that the video is properly hosted and streamed by YouTube.
