The Chinese government has announced that it will be integrating cryptocurrencies and NFTs into its digital economy.
The Shanghai Municipal People's Government mentions blockchain and NFTs in a document addressed to its district governments, offices, and bureaus.
This move is seen as a way to boost the country's adoption of blockchain technology and promote innovation.
However, some are skeptical of the government's motives, as it has a history of crackdowns on cryptocurrency exchanges and trading.
Nonetheless, this is a positive development for the cryptocurrency and NFT industries, and it will be interesting to see how China implements these technologies in the future.
Chinese government was never consistent on how it stands on crypto and most of the news about Chinese Government related to Crypto is he said she said, so I will not really believe it until it happened. However this kind of news probably will have good impact on the crypto price.
It's only bitcoin that they hate since 2017, it all started when they investigated their local exchanges and then some of them are forced to leave and now they attack bitcoin mining.
But they love everything related to altcoin, I forgot which one is Made in China way back in 2017 in which they rank it higher in bitcoin. They have this ranking released every month or every quarter, (again forgive my lack of memory here).
So I'm not surprised that they are going into digital Yuan and then integrating NFT's into their government. At least they have control over it.
