Top 15 Cryptocurrencies That Bounce Back After China’s Crypto Ban

No one takes China’s cryptocurrency ban seriously anymore. In less than 10 years, the country has a history of five bans. It doesn’t look like its September 24 decision was the final because there are some platforms that enable transactions with little or no restrictions.

Unlike 2013 when bitcoin experienced a massive tumble after authorities announced. BTC had fallen from $1,100 on November 30 to $559 on December 18, 2013.

There was a similar ban in 2017, 2019, and in May 2021. Since 2013, a year never passed by without a form of restriction from authorities within the Asian country.

But the latest announcement saw up to 10 authorities including the Central Bank of the Republic of China and securities and foreign exchange speaking with one voice.
