Don't know if you are:

1) a troll
2) a pig getting slaughtered (A.K.A. "a retard")
3) a noob trying to talk down the price down so he can load the truck with cheap coins

Please advise.

How much fiat/bitcoins % you in right now?

Depends on how you look at it. I'm not trading unless we enter a bear market, so in one sense I'm "100% in". On the other side, I recently converted 10% of my stash in fiat profits, but with the intention to spend it - not to buy back... Unless we enter a bear market and we revisit $300.

This China stuff just simply shouldn't have a single bad influence on Bitcoin's price. At least in negative direction, giving bitcoin exchange a green to legalize themselves could only be positive.

so, check this out

"...The Notice requires, the Bitcoin websites that act as the main trading platform, should follow the Telecommunications Act and the Regulation on Internet Information Service, and register according to law. ..."

Somebody just got a sweet deal *cough, owner of BTCChina, cough*

Must be nice to get an inside deal. *cough, money exchanges hands, cough*

What advantage does BTCCHina have for which you suggest they've had to pay?

I'm suggesting it must be nice to have all potential competition in your country, essentially, get the kibosh. How that may have happened, I can only *speculate*.

Did you see this from a couple of days ago? It might help with that *speculation*. Wink

What if the amount of bitcoins I specify is more than the current price will allow?

Not sure about the web interface but is probably the same as the API where you can enter amount of like 1000 even if you only have 2 to sell or funds to buy 2 and it will auto adjust.

Simply said, what China bans in this notice does not exists in any country yet. As far as I know no bank is using bitcoin as a currency in all over the world. Even Germany treats it as a private currency. China just officially announced it. On the other hand, previously exchanges are in gray area but now they have chance to be 'white'.

But didn't China ban it as a currency too? In that case probably the main purpose of bitcoin is void. I'm not saying that's the case but that's what I heard. Banning the banks is moot, who cares? But banning the currency aspect of bitcoin is really not cool.

You've misunderstood a little. They banned banks from trading it as a currency (as they would with CNY, USD, GBP, EUR etc etc). This wasn't a source of value for bitcoin in the first place - no banks, anywhere in the world, engage in FOREX transactions in BTC - so beyond this initial wave of panic sales, this shouldn't affect bitcoin's value in the long-term.

nothing is 100% clear most of this is probably google translations. However I don't believe it is banned as a currency.

These news are already widely known amongst market participants. If that would trigger a crash, the crash would have already happened. China is going to bed now, it's old news already.
Sheep Market is even older.

You cannot anticipate the market based on old news. You have to anticipate the news.

I don't say there won't be a crash, maybe there will. But I think more bad news would be needed for that.

I personally follow and post here the 5 rules of success for you:
1. Don't get emotional from other's people thoughts.
2. Not everyone here is a "nice person" you can trust.
3. IF YOU DON'T KNOW WHAT TO DO, DON'T TRADE.
4. HOLD!!!
5. Until you desperately need the money follow rule #4.

Good Luck!

Dude stop reading what some bull manipulates the news to say as fact. It's bad news full stop. China's banning financial institutions from handling bitcoin transactions, if you see that as good news for Chinese exchanges or for bitcoin in China alone, your deluded.

Is your perspective now the following hours, days, weeks or months?

"Bad news for Bitcoin" as a generalization does not exist, because nothing can stop Bitcoin. It is just a question of the way.

Pls elaborate.

Yes I agree, just getting caught up in the excitement. Like I said earlier I still think 1mill per coin is going to happen. But this is a temporary bad news. I think we will feel the effects of this for a few weeks, if not months. Not only because of what has happened in China but because it will effect the confidence of all our new investors, small or big. The media which has helped rally us to our latest ATH with such voracity will act as a two edged sword and now do the opposite touting the crash which will upset our adoption rate.

I don't think we will see several months like the last time, but we will have to go into a bear market for a few months, forget this bad news, recuperate, get more good news, and advance on another ATH attack, how long that takes, I have no idea.

this was a smaller crash than last week.. if China was so bearish from the news they'd be selling.. they're not, they'll gox test the 1100s first for sure.

Even Germany treats it as a private currency. Could you tell me any bank is doing bitcoin transactions? Do you really believe any bank will accept bitcoin as one of the currencies in the near future? The announcement of China has no surprise at all.

On the other hand, previously exchanges are in gray area but now they have chance to be 'white'.
