I know huobi is a Chinese exchange.  I know they're saying they are now accepting fiat via "remittance".  What is remittance though?  And they say they support two different banks. Is remittance like a cashier's check form one of these banks?  Is it a bank wire?

In the contexts I'm familiar with, remittance refers to services in western countries designed to help expats send money back to their home country.

If that's what it refers to here, then it's not clear how much help it is to most people in China, as it would require them to have funds in the west to start with (or the ability to transfer funds from China to a western country).

So do you believe this could be an answer for the Chinese problem?  Why were the exchanges and depositors having to use 3rd party payment processors, if they could just use the banks directly like this anyway?

Localbitcoins?  (Or a local equivalent.)

Cash trades aren't banned right now, I think

would p2p exchanges solve it ?

Whoa, there are a lot of cats in this wall.
It is wire.wire within China is cheap and instant

This is starting to get posted everywhere:

The front page of huobi.com says "银行汇款充值24小时到账,支持招商、建设银行。"

Apparently it translates to: "You can use the remittance to deposit fiat into our platform. The fund will be available in 24 hours. We support China Merchants Bank and China Construction Bank".

It looks like this exchange has found a way around the new regulations.

anonymity I believe.  Direct bank transfers are of course documented, whereas it sounds like the 3rd party payment system less scrutinized?

But now it sounds like the 3rd party payment system is the one so heavily scrutinized.  Plus, were the Chinese really using BTC for things they felt they needed to be anonymous for?  

I think if someone like OKCoin or BTCchina were to announce this, the price would explode.

Depressing: Lost ~$50k this crash (in btc) thus far.

Somewhat Uplifting: Before Bitcoin, didn't have 50k to lose.  

I'm over it.  Bitcoin will recover (as it has 5x times already).  It's one resilient SOB.   Grin

The collapse of hubris has begun indeed.

What it does or what it can do?

Elevate your awareness to unenviable heights.  I guess.  lol

I am still waiting to see a recovery that is not led by btcChina.
yesterday (and most f the time it seems) Bitstamp and Mt.Gox followed BTC-China rather closely, apart from certain scale factors.

However, when BTC-China fell too much and too fast the other two seemed to be trying to hold the price up:

A damping ringing oscillator with decreasing amplitudes and decreasing frequencies you say? That is fucking cool, sorry for the language but it is appropriate.

Well I just consulted my trading team and asked them if I should by more bitcoins or wait for a lower price? They have analyzed the information available and said "Buy more bitcoins daddy". When all else fails you listen to the 5 and two year olds. They know what's up!

Last Bull Run my 6 year old asked in earnest are the bulls or the bears winning today Dady

That's awesome!
In lieu of any sensible financial advice here, I asked my cat what to do and she said: "hold, remember this is Bitcoin".  
Which shows cats are pretty smart.
