Twitter Pickup: Bitcoin is rising because the Chinese are buying? not at all!

Bitcoin rose because the Chinese are buying? not at all!

Yesterday, the yuan broke 7 for the first time in 11 years, and Bitcoin also pulled up 7%. Some people think that the rise of Bitcoin is related to the Chinese buying heavily because of risk aversion. How about the situation, let's see how the big V on Twitter looks:

Forbes commentator Joseph Young:

I don't think there is enough data to support China's huge impact on capital inflows into Bitcoin, but in recent months, a large part of Tether's chain trading volume has come from China, which I think is a question worth considering.

Peter Schiff, President of Euro Pacific Capital, a gold lover:

The US Consumer News and Consumer Channel (CNBC) is doing its utmost to trick its viewers into buying bitcoin. Although gold has always been a bigger market, CNBC has given Bitcoin more playing time. Chinese people will not use Bitcoin as a safe haven. Speculators are buying, and they bet that Chinese people will buy bitcoin as a safe haven.

Dovey Wan, Founding Partner of Primitive Ventures:

In my opinion, "Chinese people are buying Bitcoin" is a very unreliable statement.

1. China's centralized exchange of fire coins, Okex's bitcoin transaction price (relative to other exchanges) is a negative premium.

2. The RMB-dominated OTC price is currently a 1% premium and is in the normal range since the bull market.

I personally believe that global financial uncertainty has pushed up the (digital currency) market, and funding may come from outside China rather than China.

In addition, we see that gold-denominated transactions have a real surge in both quantity and price.

If the Chinese really want to hedge the uncertainty of global finance, especially the devaluation of the renminbi, Tether is a choice, not a bitcoin. Bitcoin is a long-term hedge against some high net worth individuals.

However, Tether is now also at a negative premium.

But in any case, we need to find a reason for the rising bitcoin: just like this, I accept it all.

Liteco successfully halved, Li Qiwei sent a congratulatory

Liteco coin founder Charlie Lee:

Litecoin halved successfully! The price of Litecoin just reached $100! (Note: This tweet was sent yesterday afternoon)

The 168000 block produced 12.5 LTC blockchain rewards.

Let us look forward to halving again in August 2023!

After halving, 12 blocks were produced in 17 minutes.

It seems that the miners did not shut down their computing power at all. Instead, we dug up a new block in an average of 1.4 minutes, which is much faster than the expected 2.5 minutes. (Note: The average time of the Litecoin is 2.5 minutes)

The network of Litecoin is healthy!
