China Cracks Down On Crypto-Currencies As Bitcoin Falls
In China’s latest attempt to clamp down on what was a burgeoning digital trading market, China has banned financial institutions and payment companies from providing services related to cryptocurrency transactions, and warned investors against speculative crypto trading.

“Recently, crypto currency prices have skyrocketed and plummeted, and speculative trading of cryptocurrency has rebounded, seriously infringing on the safety of people’s property and disrupting the normal economic and financial order,” they said in the statement.
The ban triggered a plummet of Bitcoin price, with Bitcoin retesting the $30k support.
