Neither do I, but the ann does not come from him, but from Shanghai People’s Court, although I think it is better to assume that if they announce this, it is because they somehow have the approval of the President or high authorities of the state. With the policy they followed after being one of the first countries to adopt Bitcoin and its mining, I don't trust a simple statement.
Yeah, we should take everything with a grain of salt here. I mean it's surprises us that suddenly Shanghai People's Court recognized BTC, but it's kinda late though. They have had their hardline stance since 2017-2018 if my memory serves me right, that's why there are a lot of exchanges who move out and then the rating they gave to bitcoin is very poor.
Then the drama on the mining itself driving out most of the miners outside of China. And then they just make a U-turn this 2023? Hmm, something is not adding up right here from the Chinese government.
