Topic: What happens when Chinese speculators enter Bitcoin market? - page 3. (Read 1991 times)
If the Chinese are really wanting to get their yuan out of the country, then they will start buying in Bitcoin and this will basically raise the price because the Chinese will create a bigger demand for coins. However when they decide to get rid of Bitcoin and get back into fiat they will effectively crash the Bitcoin market by creating a bigger supply than the actual demand requires. Such extreme conditions are not good for the Bitcoin economy in my opinion and we must be careful because we can easily be caught in the bubble and lose a lot of money when it finally bursts.
Speculating is a widespread hobby in China. We can see this quite well based on the past years. First, the Chinese invested heavily in real estate. When the market slowed, the speculators turned to the Chinese stock market. As it slowly collapsed last year, most speculators got into the resource sector and caused rising prices. It is only a matter of time before the Chinese speculating in a big way with Bitcoin and crypto currencies. What do you expect in this case, when suddenly hundreds of thousands more people are speculating with crypto coins with high leverage?
It can only be short term in nature and they will move to other assets.
At which point, Bitcoin will crash and crash hard.
I don't see how that can be good for Bitcoin.
Chineses are using Bitcoin to move funds out of China, probably this is main reason. We will see heavy buying in yuan and then dump in usd.
