I think we should change the sentence. China does not hate bitcoin. Cina just try to remove everything that different with their economy principal. Bitcoin really hard to control by them and they did not like it. Everything that is not suitable with their principal, they will ban it.

I think China doesn't like the idea of bitcoin. Rather China hates bitcoin because it is not from them. China and North Korea have same ideology, they only use what they made and doesn't want any foreign to them.

 If China cannot control something, it bans it. Of course, one doesn't have to be a communist country to take that tack. Many other countries see Bitcoin, and other cryptocurrencies as a direct threat to their financial dominance of the markets.
Fortunately, other countries, like Japan & South Korea, embrace it. We will simply see these, and other nations, take up the slack and create friendly policies that will enable these currencies to flourish.
Cheers!

I don't think China hates Bitcoin. I think it just doesn't like anything foreign in general, such as Google and its services. It rather creates its own which will then be massly adopted by its people. So it will likely accept a local crypto, or create a crypto for the state.

They hate it because a lot of money it is going from their country to others because a lot of ICOs are build up outside of china.

I think they do not hate bitcoin, but due to the nature of the secret transactions make the Chinese government anticipate by blocking it. because bitcoin can be a place to launder money. And banks and chinese goverment do not benefit from bitcoin.
You're right, China is a huge market. But there are many loopholes.

China doesn't hate bitcoin, but the decentralized system itself.
In some other thought, maybe they hate the potential that bitcoin have.
That can empower an individual, and the country wants the flow of money will be around their country.

They want to stop speculations and manipulations with black money. Bitcoin can be a place to launder money. They don't hate.

A big part of China's monetary policy is strict capital control- no capital outflow and very limited inflows. Bitcoin obviously makes capital outflow much easier, which is one of the main reasons the government dislikes it. That being said, China is bullish on crypto in general, which is why they're developing their own centralized cryptocurrency.

I think one of the reasons why they hate it or why they ban bitcoin. Because we know that bitcoin may make the bank disappear, and very difficult to control ...

Maybe that could be a reason China hates Bitcoin because it is very detrimental to their country. Wink

Because they think they can rule the economy of the world and suddenly they had a rival in bitcoin, so they stared to hurt it from every possible angle.

I believe China doesn't hate bitcoin. China might hate the fact that it's untraceable, and with the problems that rised with the ICO's where many investors were scammed, and lost money, they couldn't do anything to retrieve that. It's a risky market, some will opt out of it, some will just act that they will opt out, and others will continue following bitcoin!

If china hate bitcoin because it is untraceable and its the same like china hate bitcoin because untraceable is one of bitcoin characteristic and it can not be splitted from bitcoin.

If something pops up in China that's hard to be controlled by the government, it will be banned first (just like world-wide web)

But this doesn't mean China denies the latest technology innovation, instead they try to cultivate its own version of such technology and make it easier to control (their glorious GFW)

You'll see, in a few years, a chinese own Blockchain will be published lol

They are trying to make sure that bitcoin isn't used to circumvent currency controls.  The Chinese government does not want to make it easy to convert RMB to dollars, and bitcoin is a way of doing that.

Update: It appears that there wasn't a direct regulatory instruction.  BTCChina is not accepting RMB deposits now, but other Chinese exchanges seem to be.

China might just enforcing its banking laws and trying to prevent its people from unlawful use of cryptocurrency. Some people inside china might try to use bitcoin or any cryptocurrency in illegal means. Not all chinese hated bitcoin, many of them are also holders and big time investors of cryptocurrencies.

This is pretty much the whole story right here...

Quote
" NIFA official Li Lihui told a technology conference in Shanghai on Friday that a goal of China’s monetary regulation is to ensure that “the source and destination of every piece of money can be tracked.” "

Bitcoin is the mortal enemy of 'tracking'.  Therefore China is going to continue to assault Bitcoin from every angle.  You can be sure of that.
What do you think is the problem of a country that doesnt want to give its people an opportunity for financial freedom?

The Chinese population is quite crowded if their people use bitcoin as a form of tax evasion as a real danger. Some people use bitcoin as a form of money laundering. Many criminals may take advantage of bitcoin as a form of gambling, drugs, etc., so banned bitcoin
