Chinas state-controlled television station, CCTV.com, recently hosted a segment breaking down
Bitcoin, according to a prominent trader that closely follows the regions cryptocurrency scene.
China's state controlled television explaining the basics of "first ever
blockchain technology" #bitcoin $btc, and how a distributed ledger works
Imagine 1.3 billion people got to know bitcoin because state made an effort to explain how it works.
China has something to do with Bitcoin's price increase. No one denies that. But, to be clear, the recent Bitcoin price increase is not solely about China. China was not everything to what happened. I don't like hearing statements saying China is the one that caused the pump, China is the reason why Bitcoin's price increased, China caused the massive dump, China is the one that controls the fate of Bitcoin because the largest mining farm is in China, etc. What do all these imply, that China is lording over Bitcoin? Or Bitcoin is in China's hands? I don't share this.
China has really a huge impact in manipulating Bitcoin's price, remember way back 2018 they banned exchanges and other transaction related with Bitcoin, it really hit hard enough to make a downfall for crypto. And recently, president of China has endorsed Blockchain techology in his speech in fact perhaps this is the reason of sudden fluctuation.
