Why China is the most important market of the 21st century.
China is the next great nation. It is becoming more and more free market; after being burnt by communism they have learned their lesson. The Chinese are highly productive and have a high savings rate. China is one of the largest creditor nations on earth. Chinese don't cry for government, but rely on their savings and family if they are in need. They have great plans for the yuan and are slowly moving away from the dollar peg and treasuries. Their currency will rise dramatically once it is allowed to float freely. The dollar wont be propped up and Americans will have to live within their means.
America, a thing of the past.
America is a thing of the past. It is the biggest debtor with huge unfunded liabilities. Its citizens consume but save and produce nothing. They are deeply in debt. They are living of the dollars status and Chinese productivity. The US is becoming more and more socialist. Responsibilities are delegated to the government. The first question we often hear from US citizens is: "How can government help me?". The US dollar is being printed like it is going out of style.
Bitcoins, dead on arrival in the most important market on earth: China.
Bitcoins are not tolerated in one of the great nations of this century. This is a huge issue many of you guys are ignoring. The Chinese will see a RISING yuan and thus a exploding living standard. They wont look for alternatives like bitcoin. The Chinese government has great plans for its currency and it will be a new power tool (like the dollar has been). They wont allow bitcoin to get in the way and thus have prohibited it. If bitcoin is not dead in China yet, the government will keep beating it into the ground, until Bitcoin stops making any sort of noise that might distract from the almighty yuan. As the Chinese will have relatively sound money (yuan), they wont be challenging their government regarding bitcoin.
Bitcoin not having any foothold in the most important market is a huge deal.
The US: dictatorships concentrate power.
The US will become more and more dictatorial. Dictatorships concentrate power and abuse their currency. They hate competition and decentralization. Bitcoin will be treated just as harshly as in China. Mark my word.
DISCLOSURE: I dont believe Bitcoin is viable, even if it were allowed to compete.

Now this sounds very familiar for views towards United States of America, on more than several occasions in its entire history. It's also interesting to note how this idiotic argument is virtually identical in motivation, tone, and 'rationale' to 80s 'japan takes over the world' or 'USSR takes over US'. Worst of all, it cherry picks and embellishes its tone to the point of masturbatory bitchfest while ignoring all the advantages US not only enjoys but keeps advancing. But of course, if they were capable of considering that, they will not be getting so ahead of themselves ![Smiley](https://bitcointalk.org/Smileys/default/smiley.gif)

Most Chinese buyers of BTC are using it not as a spending currency, but to hide and protect their currency and asset savings.

http://www.zerohedge.com/news/2013-12-20/china-bails-out-money-markets-second-day-row-following-repo-rate-blow-out China's central bank said it had injected over 300 billion yuan ($49.2 billion) into the nation's money markets over a three-day period as interbank interest rates surged to their highest levels since June.
The interest rates banks charge each other for short-term loans jumped to 8.2%, the highest level since the June cash squeeze.
The stress in the banking system is starting to spread elsewhere, with stocks in Shanghai falling for a ninth straight day to the weakest level in four months while government bonds dropped, pushing the 10-yield up to near the highest in eight years.
yeah, that almighty yuan alright ... the place is about to go tits up buddy, pay attention ... ... sheesh where did this latest crop of idiots on bitcointalk arrive from, Wall Street?

porc,
That is a lot of future telling. Unsurprisingly, all of your fortune telling ignores technology which the US leads on by a very large margin. Secondary to this is the idea that the future of Bitcoin is dependent upon one nation. It isn't. Bitcoin, the technology, is here to stay and it will become much more valuable as time passes. Forget about your fortune telling and start working toward promoting this technology. Whoever you are, to place yourself by its side, would be a very wise move. Confabulate no more about futures and instead work today to improve a present technology.

The notorious troll and all of the mainstream brains out there (late and latest adopters) can't realise, that state terror is the reason why Bitcoin was created and the ground on which Bitcoin is growing and prospering.

And the fact the Bitcoin is accepted regardless of its effect on TPTB in free nations is a pretty good commentary on WHY these nations lead in technology and therefore standard of living.
Someone good a those meme pictures should come up with something like:
Free Nations: Bitcoin Accepted Here

Many U.S. corporations have begun bringing back manufacturing home and this trend will even increase witch cheap energy (shale gas), automation and rising wages in China. Chinese likely will lag forever in the level of technology and simply clone western inventions as they do it now (it is a specific part of their mentality and is difficult to change). As the result, Chinese economy will be like it was 100 years ago!

I do not know who said such stupid things, but they are completely foolish and untrue. Chinese government is totalitarian, but they are afraid of political unrest, too, and to avoid it must keep unemployment as low as possible. To do this thing, they must make exports as cheap as possible, and thus have as many people work at factories as possible, which means they have to keep their currency as cheap as possible. If Chinese government allowed for such things as stated above, price of Chinese labor and exports will go up, unemployment will go up, and people with power in government may have to deal with popular revolution. Again. They fear this, and will not let it happen.

Bitcoin has become a religion of the repressed masses. It is kinda similar to Christianity. There are the bad guys, there are the poor guys, and there is the promise of a better land. It is a cure for the predatory disease of capitalism that hunts the working class. At least that's how it is being sold to the masses. It's doomed to not fail. It is an idea, something that exist in the mind, and thus it is without any tangible properties that would make it fail. There is plenty of $$$ one can make from this dream, so I recommend you to jump in while you can.
