Bitcoin has been a major disruptor in China and its socialist monetary policies.
As such, it is believed that the Chinese government has perceived the growing interest of the digital currency as a threat especially as Chinese investors have been seen to buy up Bitcoin and bet against the yuan.
The anonymous source cites “too much disorder” as the reason for the alleged shutdown, echoing the Chinese central bank’s words last week criticizing ICOs for disrupting the country’s financial order.

The bitcoin vs gold debate has raged on in investment circles since bitcoin has entered mainstream discussion among increasingly interested investors. Gold has been used as a form of currency and trade for thousands of years, and certainly has a track record for reliability and preservation of wealth. However, as the newcomer onto the scene, bitcoin may be the kind of financial and technological breakthrough to to challenge gold as the monetary kingpin.

There are many ways to use Bitcoin, and as many ways to keep them. Be aware of what you want to use your Bitcoins for, and how accessible they need to be. There is often a trade-off between accessibility and security, but by spreading your Bitcoins across different wallets, you can find the optimal situation

Though Bitcoin is a very promising commodity, still I think it cannot replace the real money. For one, any government will not hold anything that they cannot control and bitcoin for that matter is an example. It is a decentralized currency, meaning no one has a direct authority over it.
Real money is still real money. And i dont think a lot of normal people know about it. And both real world currency and the cryptocurrency are not going to be disappear from the world. All of them are going to play their role into this. And they are going to affect each other. But the crypto and private nature of the currency is going to make it harder for some currencies.

"Decentralized" by itself is not valuable, but if it leads to you being able to choose your own monetary policy and it leads to you being able to pay whomever you want to pay without interference, then it's valuable, and that's what Bitcoin allows you to do. What I'm getting at is that I hear often how Bitcoin being decentralized is one of it's biggest appeals. That's usually followed up with, it can't be manipulated by bureaucrats, or something similar. I just don't see the difference when something like the fork happens. The developers and miners are acting out of their own self interest and opinion which may or may not be good for the future of the currency, the investor, or casual bitcoin user.

We are entering a reality where three billion of the world's poorest people have access to smartphones but not to traditional financial services. That means despite digital connectivity, the world's poorest remain unable to send and receive money via financial institutions, visit their local bank or write a check. The economic and human implications of lack of financial opportunity are huge and virtual currency may just be our great equaliser.
I am excited for the future of cryptocurrencies. My money's on Bitcoin as a hugely disruptive force for good, with practical applications that could bring finance to the masses, and inclusion to those currently left out of our global banking system. Cryptocurrency may just be the great equaliser that so many have been seeking.

Most cryptocurrency enthusiasts easily dismiss these headlines of bitcoin bursting at the seams. The Linkedin post/hoax was no different as even if it was true, the points made were quite illogical. However mainstream media and those who don’t know much about bitcoin can easily be swayed by such headlines. Think about how many of your friends say, “Oh I thought bitcoin had died.”
I do believe this is not the Death of the Bitcoin / crypto currency as if some new traders sees . It is just a sell off or correction which is really a normal thing in stocks tradings.

This guy claims that his wordpress site had a turnover of over 6 million yesterday (March 19 2013). This may or may not be true, who knows, but let's assume it is for the sake of argument. His average commission is likely to be around 50 bips, judging from his fee schedule. After all, since you can't get more than 1000 bucks out per day, few people will be gullible enough to do larger trades.

Bitcoin is celebrated by supporters and admonished by skeptics because of its finite supply. There are only 21 million bitcoins that can ever be mined, regardless of the earth’s population and its corresponding demand for bitcoins. Once all 21 million have been mined, there will never be any new bitcoins (unless a change to the protocol is made to increase the supply).

There is only one decision from the Chinese government, making the market riot

That is very praiseworthy. Looking forward to the strong return of ETH

It is influenced by China and other altcoins. Do you have investment at this time?

But that has happened. China hopes to soon introduce a policy to push back the ICO

Your plan is very good. btc is said to be a safe place to invest. But you invest a coin then the profit will not be high
good luck!

I think all the ICOs already in the bubble are clear that this event could open the eyes of everyone to the upcoming ICO crises. Whoever accepts the risk he will win

I think the current political situation affects all atlcoin?
A post from the president of the United States on Twitter is a drastic change

now its value is $63, Do you think it continues to fall?

ETH is more potent. But more people know BTC more.

Dogecoin's rise can only thanks to China pump market
