Although bitcoin is a chinese cashcow, things will change if more western investors step in.
I am sure they will rescape the market into their profit.
BTC is limited supply. Chinese Bitcoin Cowboys already holding a serious amount of those. Nobody knows for sure how much, but enough to control market at this current point in time. If anyone doesn't think that BTC is controlled from China, then they just aint been apying attention. BTC cowboys no doubt Bought loads on crash down, buy loads from Chinese Miners or perhaps 'they' are the Chinese Miners? China is where the majority of BTC is mined today.
Wealthly Chinese have a motivation invest heavily into BTC that western capital lacks......Capital Flight......and this won't be Chinese investors en masse...this will be a tiny Cabal of Chinese BTCers that are slapping this mkt around like a bitch.
