The Chinese government has banned the circulation of bitcoin on all platforms, closed all platforms for trading bitcoin, and regarded bitcoin as a haven for criminal activities such as money laundering
In addition, bitcoin will eliminate the role of middleman in the near future& mdash; As a result, no institution or government can control or monopolize this decentralized currencythe transaction of bitcoin is completed in a direct way, without any financial intermediary, that is to say, bitcoin can complete the transaction directly between the buyer and the seller, without the need for a third party or other traditional banknotes as an intermediary. Therefore, bitcoin will pose a major threat to the banking system{ RRRRR}
based on two characteristics, the Chinese government allows the exploitation of bitcoin.

it is reported that the value of a bitcoin is currently equivalent to US $31000, which means that China has made huge profits from mining.
