Topic: Chinese trade volums vs. usd trade volumes etc. - page 2. (Read 2339 times)

And what about more than 50% of the worlds mining being in China?  Can you trust that, or is that wash volume due to no fees?

Why can people not accept that China uses a lot of Bitcoin? The entire bitcoin value is only a few billion USD, it's nothing in the grand scheme of things. China seem to be looking to invest in the future with infrastructure and buying up commodities, bitcoin is just a very small part of that.

Chinese exchanges have no cost for a trade. Therefore the volume is imaginary.

Fee paying exchanges such as finex or stamp or kraken show the true market volume.

Chinese exchanges have some coins on them but cannot be trusted.

One thing you can do is check out alexa and you might get a glimpse of the users for each site.

i said "restriction" because i wasn't sure about the ban, there are applicable taxes, this is a restriction, and it's why you see low volume with JPY

Wash volume? Not sure what that means.

If you mean that China is a champion in faking volume, then I agree with you.

Volume of Chinese exchanges look way too big to be true. I wonder what it will do with their volumes when they introduce a fee structure 

China is huge, tons of people are looking forward for Bitcoin being a success to not have to depend on their opressive government and hopefully leave the country in the future and live off BTC.

People like you should stop posting on these boards and resort to read-only. you don't really understand what's going on and make these forums cluttered with garbage posts with half truths that do nothing. You're basically the equivalent of a spammer, because you're useless

japan has not banned bitcoin, you retard don't post garbage like that.

Bitfinex has the biggest true volume, the market always moves with finex.  Really hard to trust the china exchanges but they play a part.

Some Chinese based platforms simply provide the best deal:
- Lowest fees
- Most users
- Biggest trade volume
- High leverage margin

A lot of traders on there are actually Europeans and Americans. Of course many Chinese too.

Really, you guys never heard of wash volume?

Three options for why Chinese trade numbers are higher than USD numbers, with the middle option being that there are more Chinese traders?
The obvious answer is that the Chinese buy more bitcoin thn those using dollars. They also mine more than the rest of the world too. It is only extreme American arrogance that leads to this even being a question.

China are buying up gold, property, companies etc, why is it hard to believe that they are buying up btc?

well cny is higher, because there are many chinese that do trading i believe

japanese have banned bitcoin, or there are some restriction

russia same as jap

polish are approaching bitcoin, in a more healthy  way, they seems to like the tech behind it

BTCCNY volumes seem in general to be far higher than BTCUSD volumes. What are the main reasons for this?

- Do chinese exchanges have 0% trading fee, leading to more frequent trades?
- Are there more CNY traders than USD traders?
- Are trading volumes reported inaccurately? If so, is there any point in doing so, will it attract more traders? What if the fake volumes are exposed, will it damage the reputation of the exchange with decreased real trade volumes as a result?

Is there any statistics (best effort attempts) that tries to show how many bitcoin users there are in every country?

Why is CNY volume so high, and not INR for example? Localbitcoins volume of INR is quite low. Is there no bitcoin exchanges in India? Is the low popularity due to people being less technical, or more traditional? I thought IT was big in India.

Why's JPY volumes not higher? Currently CNY volumes appears hundreds of times bigger.  What about KRW (South Corea), is it on the rise?

What about RUB (Russia), localbitcoins volume is also low.

 PLN also seems relatively popular, what's the main reasons for this (foreign workers sending money home?). I see the bitcoin embassy in Warsawa recently shut down.. Are polish people technologically advanced in general?

Looking forward to your unique insights.
