The effect of fees on the Chinese exchanges in a single chart

[alyssa85]

It seems Chinese exchanges volume is getting under 25%.   
I also dont know what was actually reason behind those huge volumes in past beside that some exchanges wanted to look super big to attract more traders.

It was fake. I think the Chinese exchanges were engaged in a competition for "face" where they each felt they had to have the biggest volumes and were frantically faking it to try to win.

Chineses exchanges have a lot of work ahead of them to be compliant with PBOC. New regulations are likely to make trading btc on these exchanges require all your info. Leverage trading will require an overhaul to comply with regulation.

Mainstream media strikes again! Trying to box bitcoin as a currency and completely ignoring its other potential - killer app economic censorship.

I have my own theory about this. Bear with me:
First: I love it! Having no fees on trade was a weird thing. This graph clearly shows how China's market share dropped from 90% to about 30%.
In my opinion this means Bitcoin is maturing. Long term this will lead to a more stable situation. Bitcoin price dropped a bit when China announced stricter rules. If it can recover with the stricter rules, it comes out stronger.

I now see 2 main problems left for Bitcoin:
1. very few people own a lot, which gives them the power to influence the price on the short-term
2. full blocks don't allow for growth in transaction volume.

Your post is retarded and I didnt understand the whole point of it. Please make time to explain more of what you were trying to say. First I want to know in what way do you think BTC is maturing.

There is plenty of news floating around about this topic. It is pretty much the biggest market event of 2017 so far.
Just google: "Chinese margin trading", "Chinese intervention bitcoin margin trading", "China curbs bitcoin margin trading", etc.
