China Does It Again: Bitcoin and All Coins Go on the Red as China Announces Plans to Shut Down Exchanges

It seems that China's fight against Bitcoin and the cryptocurrency world is not over yet. I just read a report on Zero Hedge (linked at the bottom of the article) claiming that China might be planning to shut down local exchanges. This obviously has people panic selling, especially those living in the country.

And yes, it does suck a lot to hear this: if true, it is a major blow to Bitcoin and the cryptocurrency world, but I am sure this won't mark the end of it. China simply doesn't know how to deal with this and how to tackle the problem, so they are looking for solutions.

I don't think that Bitcoin should suffer on the long term and I don't think that cryptocurrencies can be defeated it's just a government trying to remain up top. They won't succeed... we are already too far.

So my recommendation? Don't panic sell. But, of course, you are free to do whatever you feel like.

Below is an excerpt form the Zero Hedge article (available in full here: http://www.zerohedge.com/news/2017-09-08/bitcoin-crashes-massive-volume-china-plans-shut-local-exchanges)
