In principle this is good since it will clear if there is something shady going on with the chinese mining business, but this panic sell is so fucking stupid. Whales sell the rumors and then panic sellers follow. Everytime something like this happens the price drops.

[poloniexwhale]

Chinese government is fucking stupid, they afraid people make money from bitcoin-FREEDOM. They are dictatorship country, shame on them, every big pump is destroyed by those morons.

[franky1]

"chinese" exchanges have been in constant communication with PBOC for years.

this topic is exaggerating a 'routine' inspection by regulators* into something sounding more like a raid.
it is not a raid. its just a routine inspection

seems like the OP wants to cause drama to cause some speculation and another discount day to buy in cheap.
and when people wise up to the truth and price then recovers, the OP can sell for profit.

*(yep many finance firms in fiat, asset and commodities get these as something treated as normal processes)

The operation is focused on checking whether the company is operating beyond its scope

BTCC for example has a regulatory agreement of what its business will do (scope of business).
the regulators are just doing a routine inspection to check

drama over

tip: this is temporary speculation drama. do not consider it a panic moment to cry about losses, consider it a discount day to increase holdings cheaply

Then you should proof that Chinese government really take bitcoin freedom since all big exchange in most country is regulated and follow KYC rules
In US, things is worse because stupid BitLicense. I think there won't be any problem if those Chinese exchange don't have anything bad to hide.

Don't be fooled by FUD.

Governments hate bitcoin because bitcoin is the currency of freedom and liberty, China is more stupid than US. But they are all bad treating bitcoins.

they dont.

remember this one simple truth..
for every bitcoin buyer there is a bitcoin seller.
meaning the chinese FIAT does not disappear, all that ultimately happens in a bitcoin trade is the name of the bank account holders of X fiat change hands.

what governments hate is people putting paper money into an envelope and sending the money out of the control of chinese banks. where it sits in some western union/bureau de change office vault in some unknown town. doing nothing and not circulating in the country of origin.

what governments hate is people not paying their taxes.. this is not a bitcoin direct issue, but an international currency issue of claiming non residence or having tax havens to avoid paying local taxes.

what governments hate is people making a financial loss, to claim it as a tax writeoff and hand less tax to the government

Wasn't China coming up with a digital fiat? They can benefit from a big dump if they intend to buy a lot of bitcoins (like some banks and companies are doing now). On second thought, that would be bad for them, people might lose their trust on the crypto. Maybe they are really just going after what they see as tax evasion. True China is a dictatorship, a communist country only in name but let us not forget that some of those money really could have been earned illegally.

For example, the Chinese are heavily involved in the drug trade in Asia. Drug manufacturing and trade itself is punishable by death in China so they manufacture those drugs in other countries instead, for example the Philippines. Drugs for the Chinese market are carried by Filipino mules but portion of the goods are also sold locally. Now if I'm a drug manufacturer in the Philippines, how would I send the money back to my boss in China?

chinese government are not buying bitcoin. they have regulations that the BANKS can only handle FIAT..

its citizens not governments that are speculating.. and at that its not 1.3billion citizens but just a few hundred or thousand citizens.. again not governments.

the government is involved in the IMF hyperledger. not bitcoin.
the government is not attacking bitcoin but just doing a routine inspection of any financial institution that is half involved with fiat trading.. even if the other half was a stock, commodity, asset or foreign currency.

soo much FUD is spread purely to create speculative panic..

China hates personal liberty..

Bitcoin is for not giving a shit what governments think..
Look here, currently what governments think is influencing/destroying bitcoin..

gov wants this, banks want that...

I meant to reply to what the info out of china is supposedly rather than your take on it..

I meant, ofcourse they would downplay the situation so they can keep us buying while they GTFO (dump on our heads)

You ever hear of any other troubled exchange in crypto history NOT tow the line "it is fine it is fin, nothing to see here" so they can keep their gig going as long as possible in order screw everyone that believes it and make out the best themselves?

BTCC "We are in huge trouble guys, the commies are coming to crush our business and this liberty.."
Not likely..
BTCC "It's not as bad as it looks, no reason to be afraid, trust us"
More likely..

For all we know they are doing the oppressive commie's bidding else have their organs harvested..

I think they are fucking smart.

This could be just a very starting step in a much larger grand scheme. What if after this audit they are able to cleanse the crap out then legalize btc or exchanges afterwards? That would put a authentic tag on btc as an investable asset. Guess what? Cash hoarders (apparently there are a lot) will have another alternative to run into. Do you still remember what happened to gold not long ago?

Above is just my speculation but i do view this as a positive regardless. The panic sell will wash out traders and return btc back to a healthier status. Believers could prosper in the long run.

Nothing good will come from that, but i hope price will be stabilised on 750$ level, not less.
Who knows tho, its totally unpredictible.
China is big factor in bitcoin world, USA is behind this time.

Here is the formal report

[unamis76]

I guess all doubts about fake volume will disappear now. Will be interesting to see what kind of problems these exchanges will have if they do fake volumes and if authorities have proof on that.

It is a strong signal that China’s government wants to regulate the market.

This might be a big issue in the coming months.

compelled PBOC to step in to guarantee financial stability, which is the paramount mission of China

Thanks, but Bitcoin is quite stable...
