So the chinese government encourage until the 7th May for miners to come forward and contribute to the conversation...

So on both occasions of the Chinese Govt acting on domestic mining they want the miners to reveal themselves,
first miners are banned unless they are registered
second miners will be banned unless they come forward and propose good on their contributions

So, a paranoid reading would be that... the Chinese government want to just know who and where you are. Though I don't think its necessarily the case at all, at this price point, I don't see it as unreasonable but the Chinese Govt wouldn't then just seize the mines themselves and operate them themselves...
like I assume has happened with miners confiscated in Venezuela, and like China the miners have to register with the government,
Like I bet also has happened to miners confiscated entering South East Asia,
Like I bet will happen to the mines that have been trapped in Iran by being lured with cheap power

Anyone think any of this is likely at all?
