Allow me to reiterate:

中国人民银行等五部委发文，要求防范比特币风险。通知明确表示比特币是一种特定的虚拟商品，不具有与货币等同的法律地位，不能且不应作为货币在市场上流通使用。

Translation: The People’s Bank of China has issued a statement requiring guard and wariness regarding Bitcoin’s risk. In a clear notification statement, Bitcoin is a type of particular fictitious and theoretical commodity, not one possessing the status of legal, and moreover cannot act as circulating currency in the market.

This does NOT just apply to financial companies and banks, as is clearly stated from the PBOC development today.
