<h2>Unpacking the Deep-Seated Reasons Behind China's Comprehensive Ban on Bitcoin and Cryptocurrencies</h2>
China has progressively tightened its regulation of cryptocurrencies since 2013, culminating in a comprehensive ban on all virtual currency-related businesses, including trading and mining, in 2021, while reiterating that offshore services are illegal.
