So far the largest financial crisis to impact Bitcoin has been Cyprus. What a tiny tiny tiny tiny little country.

What happens when China plummets...........

If China plummets it's bringing everything else with it.

So yes, hold on to your seats.

We are in a completely different time period right now. Bitcoin has matured and isn't very news responsive anymore. I am sure some old fashion investors will switch to Bitcoin, but that will happen anyway as they see Bitcoin has a lot room for growth.

What happen in Cyprus?

The 'Bail-ins'.

A 'fundamental event' indeed......which powered the MtGox 'Willy Bot' manipulated April 2013 ramp with the necesarry emotional fuel, if not actually physically driving it via Cypriots fleeing into Bitcoin to escape the bail-ins.....after all, how the fuck they going to buy Bitcoins, on a Bitcoin exchange, with their Fiat, if their government just declared a 'bank holiday'?


As of jan 1st 2016 it became legal for the banks to raid private accounts in euro countries. Forget china, the entire western world is about to collapse.

If that is the case, then your Bitcoin investments will truly turn to dust, except perhaps for a brief moment somewhere between the flash, and the bang.

Bitfinex victims. DO NOT TOUCH THE BFX TOKEN! Start moving it around, or trading it, and you will be construed as having accepted it as an alternative means of payment to your USD, BTC, etc.

First I have heard of this. Might aid in bitcoins growth as more will put their confidence into to it further while turning away from the banks that are holding their current currency for ransom.

sure, we need more independent miners, not just those Chinese miners.
we want decentralization, instead of mining power centralization in bitcoin.

out of ability to use the signature, i want a new ban strike policy that will fade the strike after 90~120 days of the ban and not to be traced back, like google | email me for anything urgent, message will possibly not be instantly responded
i am not really active for some reason

LOL, another clueless person who has no idea about China.  China would be the last country to plummet.  US media/propaganda likes you to believe that, but China is far from even being in a recession.  China won't plummet in any of our life times.  USA or UK on the other hand, who knows...

Indeed, their growth is just less than previous years. Their growth is slowing down, not their economy.

Pumps like this are not likely from fleeing people though, more likely some single buyers who draw in the day traders.

Do you think PBOC will sit and watch china-man evade the yuan control through btc?

They'll force close down chinese exchanges at the very least should btc gain traction as an evasion method.

How Ripple Rips you: "The founders of Ripple Labs created 100 billion XRP at Ripple's inception. No more can be created according to the rules of the Ripple protocol. Of the 100 billion created, 20 billion XRP were retained by the creators, seeders, venture capital companies and other founders. The remaining 80 billion were given to Ripple Labs. Ripple Labs intends to distribute and sell 55 of that 80 billion XRP to users and strategic partners. Ripple Labs also had a giveaway of under 200 million XRP (0.002% of all XRP) via World Community Grid that was later discontinued.[29] Ripple Labs will retain the remaining 25 billion"

Well the Chinese had to deal with some losses, they closed their markets earlier than usual, I guess what would happen is that whenever something goes down, bitcoin goes up again.

The Chinese market went down to the red marks yesterday and bitcoin went up while this happened.
So I think the opposite will happen with bitcoin when the china goes down.

Didn't happen, will not happen. Much more complicated than this. Government can take money from your account to repay bank debts, but only accounts with more than 100k€

So not a lot of people!
