China was once a hub for Bitcoin innovation and investment, but the nation has shifted gears over the past couple of years.<\/p>\n

So when rumors started to spread on Friday morning that the country was banning crypto mining, it was no surprise some were quick to believe the rumors.<\/p>\n

China Isn’t Banning Bitcoin Mining<\/h2>\n

On Friday morning, the screenshot seen below of a Chinese government announcement began to spread online. Asian-centric blockchain and fintech news outlet PANews wrote<\/a> in regards to the image:<\/p>\n

“The Financial Administrative of the Sichuan province of China has issued a notice to its subordinate offices ordering them to ‘guide [Bitcoin and crypto] mining entities to end their mining activities in an orderly manner’.”<\/p><\/blockquote>\n

 <\/p>\n

Image shared by PANews (@PANewsOfficial on Twitter) of a regional government attempting to ban Bitcoin mining.<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n

Some immediately took this as a sign that China, or at least this province, has begun a systematic disruption of the local crypto mining industry. Yet insiders say that these fears are overblown, despite the assertion by the regional Sichuan province government.<\/p>\n

Molly, the head of marketing at a blockchain startup and formerly of Bitcoin Magazine’s China office \u2014 told<\/a> her followers not to “freak out” because it “won’t happen [as] it\u2019s very normal that government sends out conflicting messages in China.”<\/p>\n

This was echoed by Matthew Graham<\/a>, the chief executive of Sino Global Capital, a China-based fund that involves itself with blockchain investments:<\/p>\n

“China is not banning mining, it\u2019s complicated as usual, messages frequently conflict especially at local or regional level. Actual message is basically ‘don\u2019t use local government support for mining to illegally raise money’. Thank you,” Graham wrote, trying to dissuade the fears of a Chinese crackdown on BTC.<\/p><\/blockquote>\n

Crypto Mining Persists as a China-Centric Industry<\/strong><\/h2>\n

Further cementing the idea that this is just a scare, Bitcoin mining remains centralized in China.<\/p>\n

Reuters reported late last year<\/a> that Chinese crypto miners control two-thirds of the network\u2019s hash rate, \u201ca growing share that is likely to benefit the country\u2019s miners.\u201d The research backing this statistic, done by CoinShares, also indicated that China has seen such strength in crypto mining due to its proximity to hardware manufacturers and the low cost of electricity.<\/p>\n

That’s not to say that Bitcoin’s reliance on China-based miners is a good thing, though.<\/p>\n

Industry podcaster and commentator Eris Savics last year released an extensive Twitter thread<\/a> on why “We must get Bitcoin mining out of China.”<\/p>\n

https:\/\/twitter.com\/ericsavics1\/status\/55182848<\/p>\n

He postulated that it is naive of BTC investors to believe that “the Chinese Community Party is ignoring Bitcoin,\u201d implying that the government could leverage China’s crypto infrastructure to their geopolitical and macroeconomic advantage.<\/p>\n
