“It comes amid preparations for an economic slowdown, with fears about property giant Evergrande going bust and people wanting to move their money out of China.”

And, just like that, all the investment in e-currency disappears.
Of course they do. The Chinese Commies can’t control crypto currency.
It could be their undoing, that is if the Chicoms last long enough to be undone.
Capitalism is widely practiced in Red China. It cannot be put back in the bag now.
“Fiat” e-currency, not PM e-currency.
Fiat, as in BTC, a creation of our illustrious CIA.
Left alone are the crypto’s backed by precious metals.
You can’t I ring this. It’s completely decentralized. That’s the point.
Unring
Possibly the prelude to the government controlling all transactions.
China doesn’t want to lose control over their ‘citizen/slaves’....

The pedo joe xiden is taking notes.
You keep telling yourself that. I don’t believe it in the long run.
China is really stupid for doing this. They have so many orgs in Hong Kong and China that were using crypto for micro-investment and “incubation” of developing world tech firms. It’s so easy to use crypto to quickly transfer funds from here to there.
This just in...
China has big problems to deal with:

Capital controls. China is hemorrhaging money. All these sudden moves smell of desperation.
China Evergrande is the trillion dollar canary in the coal mine.
Japan basically just told them they’ll have a sea war if they want. Think they know something?
I said it two years ago. The new laws in Hong Kong were designed so that China can detain and blackmail anybody transiting through Hong Kong. They need all the money back from their wealthy diaspora.
I thought China was a big manufacturer of crypto. So just the people can’t have it?
Gold and silver are tanking right now. Talk about a buying opportunity!
It could be their undoing, that is if the Chicoms last long enough to be undone.
We are in that kind of world now.
Thanks!
