Anyway good riddance. Miners may prepare to becoming an dying species. And take scalpers together with them.
Not if they find the new coin to mine after ETH goes down...

It's enough for one of the secondary ones to get traction, PR, some tweets from influencers and we can have birth of the next "ETH" and it's starting all over...

Yes, crypto is this volatile and versatile at the same time, because is more about perception than anything.

Sad. My daughter is working hard babysitting to earn money to build Asus Gundam rig. She just got an Asus Gundam Motherboard. What a lesson!! Work hard, do your best, and watch your dreams get killed by bots and greed. @asus. My daughter wears her ROG merch with pride and fan girls buy your products. Reward her loyalty and that of your other customers by banning this merchant. Unless , Asus, you don't care about your customer, good will and brand image.

Its likely the ban was done to protect the the state run mining operations.

Actually it's been done because of crypto being used to convert Chinese RNB which is worthless everywhere but China because no bank outside of china will convert it to another currency and even in china they limit the amount per month to something like $10k.

There are Chinese millionaire's and billionaire's (all party members) trying to move massive amounts of money out of china and Xi doesn't like it.

It has nothing to do with China's own coin because as the creators of the coin only they can make new coins and mining with GPU's isn't how they create them.
