A week ago, President Xi of China has urged the Chinese to seize opportunities in the crypto market and blockchain industry. The announcement caught the market by surprise and drive the price of Bitcoin up until $10, 000. I personally believe that with the participation of Chinese, it is undoubtedly that the adoption rate would be greatly increased. But, wouldn't it subject the Chinese projects to be under the influence of Communist Party of China? What are your thoughts on this one?

Well, China is a rising economic super power. And China consists of almost 1.4 billion people!

Even if China allows the use of only...Made in China crpytos and bans the rest, all this increased interest is bound to have some effect in BTC and all other cyptos. Despite goverment internet,censorship, many Chinese folks know how to bypass it to access the stuff we westerners enjoy.  So, all in all, I think it's gonna be a good thing, both in regards to price and adoption!
