Hey Marcus, I read the link thanks for the heads up. Personally I am hoping that the course of action that China is taking is a temporary measure until they have worked out a system that works for them, i.e. one that is short of a total ban. I believe that they are pretty positive when it comes to blockchain, its the effect that cryptocurrencies can have on the level of financial freedom that their population can have (and therefore a higher level of general autonomy) that scares the bejesus out of them. I am probably completely wrong but only time will tell. Anyway thanks again Cheers J
