Millions of regular Chinese folks can afford a car. This means they can afford a few satoshis too. There are plenty of people with a bit of money in the world without webs of offshore slipperiness.

Life is short, practice empathy in your life
But... AFAIK the Chinese with money enough to play with Bitcoin doesn't need the Chinese banks for nothing, they have money scattered all over Europe and US. The ones fully dependant of Chinese banks barely have enough for rice, leave alone Bitcoins.

According to Bobby Lee of BTCChina, at the height of the bubble he did some demographic analyses of his customers and the vast majority (+95%) of them were upper-middle class retail investors, not institutional investors. Most of these people do not have foreign bank accounts.

Bitcoin super-duper-mega-ultra-hyper-node
I think some of the whales in China will be able to confirm whether BTC is going to be banned or not before the 15th and will act accordingly. Obviously those in the know aren't exactly going to share this info and will try to use it to their benefit. If the price is going to crash, we'll see if before then.
