China bans crypto currency mining

in #china5 years ago (edited)

The Chinese government is very good at one thing. That is, banning anything that could threaten the authority of the chinese government. That's why they banned Bitcoin, a decentralized cryptocurrency. Their central bank doesn't want competition.

Then, they banned ICOs. Then exchanges. And at last, they are banning Chinese miners. The good news is, there won't be a large impact of this in the crypto market. The bad news is, Chinese miners will get rekt. Or maybe not..

Update: Looks like the ban might have had a little impact. Bitcoin price went down from $5400 to $5150. That's not a significant impact. Some atl coins were hit hard but those with real use didn't get affected that much.
