If you think about it... If it was the other way around, as in China still being able to work with btc and the US not being able to, the price would be soooooooo much lower than this.. Like Probably 200.
Probably lower cause China would've panic sold, then like $5 lol
Funny thing about this post is: Things ARE the other way around. It is far, far easier to fund your BTCChina account from a Chinese bank than to fund your Bitstamp account from a U.S. Bank.
