I don't know, that maybe they are not going to ban it?
That was the point of the post

Since there are rumors and speculation regarding closing of Chinese exchanges and post about bitcoin ban in China, I thought this could be an indicator that this won't happen

He says:”Now, the currency is fiat currency, sovereign currency. Is bitcoin a kind of currency? Yes, it is, but it’s not a fiat currency, it is a kind of electronic commodity currency, it’s a kind of currency embraced by economist Hayek, it has features like gold payment, etc..

Since China is influencing the price so much, I thought I'd post this, Sorry if it is in the wrong section
