Ok, let China ban bitcoin, we do NOT need them.

Do you REALLY think we don't need China? Of course we do!!!

The more countries that allow it, the better? Isn't it so?

Folks, if we have so many Chinese on this forum, why are we still referring to some article on caixin.com? Can anyone find an official document? The latest news related to 比特币 I can find on pbc.gov.cn are dated December 2013.

I would like to see an "official" and "verified" report.  I heard all this started with a Twitter account. 

Still..... I think China is very important.  There are a lot of very rich people in China looking to diversify their portfolios.  Having bitcoins means having money in an account that can be unlucked any time, any country, in almost any currency.  For somebody living under the strict rule of government, this is very attractive.

Yeah, we were so much happier when Bitcoin price was double digit. All that money just made us lose our mind.

What's with all the panic??!  When bitcoin price was $1200, how many of you people were saying "Geezus, I'd sure love to be able to buy BTC for under $500 again!"

OK - well, today is your day.  BTC at >50% off!!  Its like a freaking discount sale!  Now buy up!

yep and when china accepts BTC with open arms then up past $1200 it will go.

people who bitch and moan about not needing china need to realize that its only because of china that BTC was that high in the first place so now the coin is settling down to where it would be without china.

which I might add is still more than double what it was a year a go....


so while technically Bitcoin does not NEED china to succeed... I sure would like to have china along for the ride and all those wild swings we got.

Of course they only wanted to buy it for 500 when it actually was worth 1200, not now that it's worth 500. Now people wish they would've bought when the price was 200.

The previous price was always better, is the point.
