China's state controlled television explaining the basics of "first ever blockchain technology" #bitcoin $btc, and how a distributed ledger works
Imagine 1.3 billion people got to know bitcoin because state made an effort to explain how it works.
I definetly would say that the broadcast showcased that China was fully accepting of Bitcoin and it's likely the government coordinated it like so, and a lot of investers that were only stopped due to China's restrictions if it where finally able to dump funds in the crypto-currency.
They've made a huge impact, the recent price pumps tells us China means buisness.
