They need to improve their infrastructure. Just a few days back, the site was DDoSed and it was down for a few hours. The noobs were posting all sort of panicking posts here.

There is a lot of infrastructure to be done in the community at large. Hopefully we get most of it done before governments decide to "help."

Is that just money they've sent via their online wallets? Does anyone know what the figure is for the entire bitcoin transactions completed?

The non-Chinese don't care about China anymore. China and its military dictatorship can go to hell. But still, if any normal Chinese person want to use Blockchain.info or other Bitcoin-related sites, then he is free to do so via a VPN.
