    China all but bans cryptocurrencies Banks told not to transact, web platforms blocked from hosting or advertising https://www.theregister.com/2021/05/19/china_cryptocurrency_crackdown/ … India to ban ownership of cryptocurrencies https://www.independent.co.uk/asia/india/india-ban-cryptocurrencies-b1817148.html … — That's 36% of the planetary population: a good start.

        It just means that they'll have to liquidate first, so will probably get their money out, unlike the poor rubes left holding when it all collapses

        I think it would be more helpful to weight bans by the size of the economies involved. We need the US and EU on board.

        Read today US banks are required to freeze bank accounts and report to Feds if people admit to the bank the funds they put back into their acct came from crypto. Some crypto businesses are on fraud alerts for money laundering.

        I'd like to believe you, but China bans crypto about once a year to no avail.

        you are wrong, if you are following closely, you can see how Chinese govt. slowly learned more and more about crypto, it starts from banning people creating exchanges within boarder to more and more harder restrictions, now it finally decides to wipe out crypto completely
