Do you think that China is controlling/ruling bitcoin yes or no?
If mining is controlled by china.it doesn't mean it is controlling bitcoin also.They can manipulate bitcoin price but not the bitcoin

After the halving, the newly mined bitcoin will be reduced. So the Chinese will have few coins to sell in the future.

No, they don't.
The Chinese people are just too many so it appears that they are controlling it.
Of course, they share the same idea because they live in the same country.
So the movements of their people in the market are the same in majority.
currently around 80% of all Bitcoin is traded in Chinese Yuan. China has maintained more than 50% of the global Bitcoin market ever since of 2013, so we can say China is controlling bitcoin.

holy crap thats scary! doesnt surprised though China basically owns the USA with all the debt thats owed and all the things we
need from china

China has billions of population that is why Antshare https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=1571738.0 can be a good investment for us crypto users. The ICO has just started and it now got 1200+ btc.
LOL, where from you know about the relationships between ico and the population, and where from you know the investing in there is a lot of Chinese people?are you just making jokes?

You have a great point. Controlling bitcoin mining might not mean that china is now controlling bitcoin it self but in the real place it can already be considered that they will try to control it

One of their character is superiority. I see this all the time inside the building I work. In elevators or just even the hallway. They even got bodyguards with them to let people see that they are higher.
They want everyrhing under them and they will try it also with bitcoin but I doubt they will accomplish doing it. There are tok many countries that are with bitcoin. If they got the higher percentage of users or miners thay wont say they will have it. They can make great impacts but not to the extent of owning it.

Once the rest of the world starts to get more involved with Bitcoin mining we're more than likely going to see some groups of people in poorer countries take advantage of the cheap electricity to set up their own mining operations, and they will take away a considerable part of the market share from the Chinese miners if they don't have any sort of plan to invest more.

The halving doesn't really matter to the Chinese even if they have reduced coins to sell, since all miners will be experiencing the same anyways. It is a fact that the majority of mining power is owned by Chinese companies and they are enough to actually influence the value of bitcoin although only by a certain amount.

China has more than 50% of all miners located there so they can influence a bit the price because of that but they can't go any further. Bitcoin is a decentralized currency and no one can control it. Even the chances of a 51% attack to the network are out of calculations at least for now but that is also very unlikely to happen. In other words China is not controlling bitcoin and cannot control it.

Short answer is yes, Chinese mining firms control everything BTC does but they are in competition with each other over what it does and we all just ride the waves.

It's not controlling it since China requires global agreements with merchants and nodes and developers. It means nothing that china is big in mining, bitcoin is still decentralized.

I think there is contribution by china because they have a large of mining farm.. but if we are talking for the price they can control a bit in bitcoin price because they are holding a lots of bitcoins from their business bitcoin farm..
So they can control only for the price decreasing not for the price increasing..

China has:

A) 10 times as many people
B) 10 times as many mining farms
C) Mining farms that are 10 times bigger

That's how, its not the chinese Govt Vs The American Govt is just a numbers game , the more people you have working together the more control you have over Bitcoin

There's also the investment numbers game; if there were people in the US or other western countries that wanted to out in as much money the US and/or whoever would control Bitcoin, and that's basically the same as China controlling it. The numbers in China just mean a smaller investment per capita.

they can not be controlling bitcoin just by having big mining farms, there are bigger mining farms in other places of the world and having the largest population is also not a good argument about them and controlling bitcoin

How can China control btc? USA is no.1 country, I think USA can control btc, because they have more fund than China.

China has:

A) 10 times as many people
B) 10 times as many mining farms
C) Mining farms that are 10 times bigger

That's how, its not the chinese Govt Vs The American Govt is just a numbers game , the more people you have working together the more control you have over Bitcoin
There's also the investment numbers game; if there were people in the US or other western countries that wanted to out in as much money the US and/or whoever would control Bitcoin, and that's basically the same as China controlling it. The numbers in China just mean a smaller investment per capita.

Right, you mean like a million 1$ investments vs 1 million dollar investment. The US has the cash, but so does china and they have more people
