I have heard and I have read that the Chinese are the most bitcoiner people in the world. The biggest figures all all the things related to bitcoin are Chinese: the number of miners, the quantity of bitcoin mined, the biggest mining pools, the number of mining pools, the number of transactions, the quantity of bitcoin circulated etc. What other thing they can do to be more considered more connected with bitcoin?

I can give only one data that show the love of Chinese for the bitcoin. According to CoinDesk's article of August 22, 2015: "Bitcoin in China: An Insider’s View" - China has a strong competitive advantage in bitcoin mining; it currently accounts for at least 50% of the global bitcoin network mining power.

More needed?

There is a definite shift towards LiteCoin, but the most important shift was the establishment of the New World Bank {Brics countries}

The Chinese are constantly distancing themselves from the west... They use alternative markets ... Alternative coins... Why do you think they are doing that?

The latest attacks on Bitcoin is also rumored to have come from the Chinese miners..

Conspiracy theories ---> World Dominance  Roll Eyes

That is just a conspiracy theory.

The Chinese by the looks of it turned to Bitcoin for serious investment seeing it went up a few 7% today.
And pumped up litecoin to dump it

Do not count on it.
Bitcoin got a bad reputation in China. People still believe it was forbidden by government.

The government has shown that it can support the stock market.
I don't think the Chinese government will be caught dead supporting bitcoin.  Tongue

I don't think so. Investors and speculators are basically withdrawing their funds and convert it into fast cash due to the uncertainty surrounding the drop. Bitcoin is not a proxy directly connected to the stock market. When the situation gets better the fund will move back in. It's a matter of who gets in faster and who made the right decision along the way.

Litecoin mining is controlled by the ASIC miner manufacturers. There is no actual use of the coin. More adoption is needed.

i dont think so, this seems like a typical cras bubble so i bet that in a short period of time things will be more stable for them.

in the other side there is a possibility that things goes back again but with much more lower prices and stay there, hell everything is posible Tongue

but my bet is that this is just a simple bubble crash.

Bitcoin is not ready for the big volume that it would bring, the network would collapse. Thank god that people aren't ready for Bitcoin as well, they are clueless.
It will take more time, but of course that speculation about it could lead to a big price pump.

Chinese never ever turn their central currency to the Bitcoin, but they will re-invent some other crypto currency similar to Bitcoin, this is what they have been doing for years and years means copycat. I do not think that Chinese will face any sort of risk at this current situation.

I could see some Chinese turning into bitcoin after the margin trading disaster, most of this people where getting loans to do margin trading which was pretty profitable, lets see if bitcoin is attractive to them at lease.

The Chinese have the biggest part at the moment in mining. If they choose to stop, nothing will get messy, it might take some time before the mining power  is up to par again and the difficulty is reset to the new amount of hashing power available. No need to worry at all.

no need to worry? it's not that easy. especially since china is good for around 50% of the total hash power. if they stop, bitcoin will get less safe and will suffer much easier from a 51% attack. it will have a very bad impact on the price as well.

If they stop completely, the remaining hash power is still very large, larger than 12 months ago.

Only mining??? I thought that as people are talking "Chinese" all the time, the Chinese must be the creators and supplemental to Bitcoins and no one else exist except them to continue the cryptographic world...


i don't believe so, they were in a huge bubble, and now it's crashed, they were at double the value since their bubble started, so there isn't exactly a loss

also they already control 60% of the mining activity, so everyone who is interested in bitcoin in china, has already bitcoin in his pockets

Are Chinese actually the most important part of Bitcoins???
I mean I have seen many people talking about Chinese mostly whenever it comes to Bitcoins...
So, does that mean that if they decide to get out of this, then Bitcoin will become a total mess for everyone who are possessing them???

yeah they seems very interested in the profit to be made out of bitcoin not in bitcoin itself, i'm sure they will not leave as long as there is profit

if we imagines a huge price drop ,that will force 60% of chinese to go out, then everyone else will leave bitcoin as well, at least for the mining until the diff can match the price as usual

Profit is everything people are here for, else Bitcoins would have become mainstream so far before...

Ad maiora!
The stock market in China is so inflated that if anyone got in early enough and got out now they'd still be ok. As it drops the more they'll jump out but there's still a long way down to go.
They will remain Chinese though. And if anything it looks like they'll go litecoin  Tongue

The title should be "Will the chinese turn into Bitcoins after the this stock market crisis?" so I FTFY...
And no, there seems that you are trying to clash their crisis with Greece, but there doesn't seem any possibility or reasons for Chinese to turn back to Bitcoins, I guess they are already in Bitcoins but playing safely rather than those old-school pump-dump games...

It's hard to estimate the demand however it is possible to see some of the equity trickle into Bitcoin by individuals as they stay the hell out of the present market.

An FT article summarizes the Chinese pattern
“According to my friends who go to casinos and watch the Chinese gamble, they tend to jump on a ‘trend’ such as red coming up on the roulette table repeatedly — never mind that the odds are only ever 50-50. Red is seen as hot and therefore the way to bet. That carries over into trading styles. …”

i think it is possible but not all the way. chinese has been in bitcoin market for some time now, and i think it is safe to assume that now that the stock market is at a bad stage some of the investors might turn to bitcoin as an investment.
but most probably the large amount of them would wait for a better opportunity to go back in the stock market again at lower prices.

With all the attention on Greece the Chinese stock market crash has gone by pretty silent.

The Shanghai Composite dropped 3% at the opening bell, but quickly reversed course and jumped into positive territory. The index couldn't hold onto the upward momentum, however, and was flat after roughly an hour and half of trading.

The smaller Shenzhen Composite and Hong Kong's Hang Seng fared better, gaining around 2% after a slow start.

Since June 12, the Shanghai Composite has lost an unnerving 32%. The Shenzhen market, which has more tech companies and is often compared to America's Nasdaq index, is down more than 40% over the same period.
