Bitcoin took a beating on Tuesday, expanding losses completely down to $29,300, a level not seen because January, before climbing up back, ending the day at $32,000.
The major concern that terrified Bitcoin capitalists was news that China is tightening its hold on crypto transactions and mining, shutting down 90% of the country's mining ability.
Additionally, the People's Financial institution of China bought a halt to non-prescription (OTC) deals.
Saifedean Ammous, writer of "The Bitcoin Standard", informed David Lin, support for Kitco News, that you can't technically "restriction" Bitcoin and that historically, even adhering to an 80% adjustment, the cost has actually always bounced back.

Bitcoin price falls below $30k, but China ban can’t stop inevitable comeback – Saifedean Ammous
Bitcoin took a beating on Tuesday, extending losses all the way down to $29,300, a level not seen since January, before climbing back, ending the day at $32,000.
The main concern that spooked Bitcoin investors was news that China is tightening its grip on crypto transactions and mining, shutting down 90% of the country’s mining capability.
Additionally, the People’s Bank of China ordered a halt to over-the-counter (OTC) transactions.
Saifedean Ammous, author of “The Bitcoin Standard”, told David Lin, anchor for Kitco News, that you can’t technically “ban” Bitcoin and that historically, even following an 80% correction, the price has always bounced back.
