Think of the worst case scenario: China banned Google, Facebook & Twitter years ago. They're doing fine. And they ain't even decentralized. This is just a game made in China, if you already know long china character you must already know the decision that you specify later.
This is exactly my point. From now on, we have to promote the idea that China is not necessary for the survival and mainstream adoption of Bitcoin and that of cryptocurrency in general. We are not excluding China because Bitcoin is an open kind of thing but if China does now want Bitcoin then let it be...let's move on because I am sure that soon there would be other countries that are more open-minded and would love to be part of the Bitcoin movement.
China will never be the end for Bitcoin...far from it and in fact there are many big and valuable companies now that are not doing business in China yet they are doing just fine. Facebook is one hell of a company and yet it is not having a presence in China. China is just another one of those overrated country in terms of importance.
It is about time we get this message to the whole world. Bitcoin can go on without China!
