There are several different types of Bitcoin clients. The most secure are full nodes like Bitcoin Core, which will follow the rules of the network no matter what miners do. Even if every miner decided to create 1000 bitcoins per block, full nodes would stick to the rules and reject those blocks.

Why would China say... Banks aren't allowed to transaction money for BitCoin exchanges, then a month later change their mind? While China is a big bitcoin market, there is more to bitcoin than China. But, that answer to your question, is yes, buy more Bitcoin! It has stabalized at it looks like there is ton's of support at the $400+ level. It has been pretty stable around $450 for quite a while now, if you look at that charts. But, the trend recently took an upturn. I am quite bullish on bitcoin as are many. |

Sorry I hate to sound like a huge noob, but why should one buy bitcoin when the price is stable? i thought you where supposed to buy low; sell high? will bitcoin ever go up to the $500 mark again? |

Well it is considerably lower than the all-time-high, and if you think Bitcoin is a technology that should be worth more than what it is right now, there's no reason not to buy. |

Do you think bitcoin will go up anytime soon? Like is there news of something that is going to happen in the future that will positively or negatively affect the market? |

I've no idea about what will happen soon, but I believe cryptocurrencies are way better as a store-of-value and as currencies than all of those that are commonly used. So I'm pretty confident that, long-term, the price can only go way up. Imho, the best strategy would be to buy now with half of what your budget allows, and keep some fiat on the side to keep buying if it goes down. |

Stable means it isn't jumping from 500 to 300 to 800 to 120 to 950 in a matter of days any more. Of course, if you are day trading it, you hate the stable price. However, due to the design and the growing popularity I think going long on bitcoin as "part" of your more speculative portfolio is the way to go. At least, that is how I am treating it. I think it has a chance to beat quite a few investments over a 2-3 year period. Some people have predicted 1 BTC = $10,000 USD by the end of the year. I'm not THAT bullish on it, but I guess it's possible. If it is $650 or a bit higher by the end of the year, I'd be very happy I got into it and will continue to buy and hold. |

Bitcoin has never been banned in China. Never. It is not banned, nor it is allowed. Ambiguous bollocks. |

So that you can pay people around the globe with extremely low fee and almost instant transfer. |

There is no "ban" in China, at least up till now. There are restriction of ways to deposit money in exchanges though. |

Where did you get that news? I heard its total ban after may 10.. I heard of that "May 10 deadline" as well. Btw, I keep hearing those Chinese "bans" and "deadlines" since last Decemeber. Were they true? Probably not. Will there be a ban in the end? Who knows? |

Bitcoin has never been banned in China. Never. It is not banned, nor it is allowed. Ambiguous bollocks. Who says it isn't allowed? It's the PBOC putting pressure on banks to stop them dealing with bitcoin exchanges, but using bitcoins is perfectly fine in China. |
