Yes yes indeed :) I remember this was a great joke :)

Quote
“In light of China’s imminent decision to clamp down on bitcoin exchanges, we had no choice but to completely ban China. We are aware that the decision will have a long-term impact on the proliferation of bitcoin and the price, but frankly we had no alternative.”

heheheeh

will westerners please stop sheep following china.

their trading is fake...
.. dont beleive me? listen to th guys from BTCChina (time 13min to 17:30min)
http://youtu.be/2M12zzwNkCo?t=13m

then realise the news from december to april did not cause any physical impact.

and to clarify the media fud
skip to 30 minutes and 15 seconds of the same video.
bitcoin is not illegal
government is not banning users or businesses from sing bitcoin
but central banks will not DIRECTLY purchase or use bitcoins for the BANKS internal investment portfolio of services
they are allowed to however work with businesses so that businesses can send funds to customers

so can people stop basing their Western investments on Eastern FUD

Like I hear myself. I was telling that so many times.

People basing trading Bitcoins on China like China is a "determinant" of Bitcoin value - it is not!

But this thread is more about a joke :) a joke from 1st of April from Coindesk.

Didn't you bother to read any of the threads stating it was banned in China?  You would have learned that is was not true and people were spreading lies most likely so they could buy cheap coin IMO.

In my opinion there is something about this what you're saying.
It's just a matter of time when bitcoin will have own government.

But it is not a fault of people from China. :) They need BTC as we need it.
It is just that we listen to rumors! :) That we shouldn't take seriously.

There has been a lot of talk recently about China's multiple "bans" of Bitcoin. Let's be frank, Bitcoin will thrive with or without China. As I was taught in economics 101, in the long run, the market always wins. The vast Chinese citizenry need Bitcoin more than Bitcoin needs China.

Yeah i remember i rad news about "bitcoin foundation banning China" but not sure if that was true. Anyways bitcoin cant ban China, and China cant ban bitcoin. Well they can legally but , weapons , and drugs are banned to , and we have them everywhere, and bitcoin is so much easier to get and store. So... Good luck with banning bitcoin :D .

Probably should have taken economics 102 too, were they explain to you how this is a meaningless bullshit phrase.

Here is the answer (China's first Bitcoin ATM, located at Shanghai. It was installed by the Lamassu). There is another Bitcoin ATM at Beijing, but it is of the Robocoin brand.

Yap, lol. News about bitcoin is mostly based on rumors . And problem is people believe it and that then reflects on price.
I hope that will change in the future.

We are now officially overdue for some more BS news out of China. Once that happens we will see how legitimate this last price rally was. I'm hoping that btc is much stronger this time around, and that it won't affect prices as drastically as it used to...

The price of bitcoin is recovering these days, so that is just bad spread of rumors...
To be sure you can clearly see sites for electronic gadgets in China still receive payment in bitcoins.

We should look at this problem from a different angle.

Without Chinese Gov's influence, BTC price should be higher than $1,000USD today.
How could BTC price went down to $400USD and that provided you an opportunity to buy more BTC?

Everyone knows Chinese Gov could not ban BTC in terms of technical aspect.
And eventually BTC price would continuously rise up in the long term.

So what Chinese Gov had done is to offer you a chance to buy more BTC and be more rich in the future:).

According to official sources, the ultimate and final ban(exchanges shutdown...) is about to follow in the next few days.

LOL, don't listen to stuff you hear at these forums. If anyone is seriously still trading base on rumors in the bitcoin community then you deserve to be panicked out of your "investment".

What I am asking is "where did you get the information (Chinese exchanges shutdown in the next few days)?"
I did not see it from Chinese BTC forum, so I am quite curious about your information source.
But that does not mean my investment is based on "rumors" from Chinese BTC forums.
That should be a simple logic, isn't it?
If you could not provide the "official sources" or prove it, obviously you are saying "rumors"!

Btw, each forums has "rumors" about something, that's for sure.
Apart from that, Chinese BTC forums also have many logical and thoughtful analysis on BTC price trend and future. Those made by very clever guys and quite valuable.
I do not expect you to be able to read those Chinese articles, but please do not prejudge something you do not understand.

BTC price is based on the public recognition and confidence.
If China has a monopoly on BTC market, I believe people would go to other altcoin (LTC or something else).
BTC will be worthless and, Chinese Gov gain nothing from it.
