This should be placed in the "Good" news section and not in the "Panic" section of this forum.  Roll Eyes   It has been said for several years that "Bitcoin mining is too centralized in China" and now this so-called Chinese monopoly has been broken by their own government.  Grin

People should celebrate that the large Chinese mining farms are relocating to other countries and that it cannot be used as a "scare tactic" by our competitors and the mass media.
