Bitcoin is crashing at 25% so far, it seems there are rumors that China banned Bitcoin payment processors from dealing with Bitcoin Exchanges, some confirming this to be true.

http://www.coindesk.com/china-bans-payment-companies-working-bitcoin-exchanges-sources-claim/

If indeed this is confirmed further in the next couple of days, This means Chinese can't deposit money to exchanges, which is very grave.

I wish all Bitcoiners the best in the coming days.

So they can still sell their coins, but no one can deposit money into the echanges? Things will not be good for a few weeks, imo.

This is further clarified in the article:

People will still be able to withdraw their money from Chinese exchanges, they just won’t be able to deposit new funds. - You can only sell Bitcoins on exchange and withdraw Fiat, but not deposit Fiat to buy coins.

People will still be able to sell their bitcoins for local currency and then withdraw that currency

So they are cashing out and the price should drop for a while until we are where we would be without them, plus whatever they do localbitcoins style. Interesting.

Look inside yourself, and you will see that you are the bubble.

So chinese are getting f in the a. I guess now they will see that unless they actually *own* their money they will be told what they can or can't do with it, like little children. Seems very bullish to me... After the panic dissipates in a week or two. Meanwhile, cheap coins.
