Still don't get the point of trying to regulate mining while their attempts to regulate Bitcoin itself was a big flop. Probably going to force miners to switch to BCH with pressure mounting from Jihan Wu and the BCH backers. This might actually take a toll on the already existing network congestion initially, but as always, Bitcoin will hold its own no matter what.

Good thing I don't live in China 
Instead I live in Sweden where I pay a shit load of money for electricity. Still, I use solar power from my provider. So I don't pollute as much, but it does cost a pretty penny.
