Hmm, maybe because lots of Big whales came from china, and numbers of billionair came from china, therefore, big percentage of Investors, came from china.

Bitcoin is controlled by China? Not really. The vast majority of ASICs is being manufactured and used in China but it doesn't mean that they control it completely. We could easily fork to allow GPU mining and disable ASICs but it won't happen. Developers are not from China and they can't control what will happen to Bitcoin. They couldn't force us to increase the blocksize, we chose SegWit.
