Hot off the press translation of Huobi's announcement:
Dear Customers of Huobi,
Huobi had been contacting various government agencies about the “April 15” news that had been spreading on the internet. Unfortunately, we were not able to get any useful information regrading the matter from those agencies. Therefore, we cannot give our investors a clear answer at this time. We are sorry about that.
Banks:We have accounts with the banks listed below. Information from the branches of those banks is that they did not received any memo about Bitcoin in the last three months.
The banks told us that they have only learn about “April 15” from the news.
The banks stated that they do not know if the news reported about “April 15” is true.
http://www.reddit.com/r/BitcoinMarkets/comments/220qob/fxbtc_small_chinese_exchange_shuts_down_cny/After Huobi's statement that their banks do not know about this 15th april thing, does anyone believe that chinese banks can close exchanges accounts in 11 days without notice ? Can new rulings be enforced so abruptly and with no official communication ?
After Huobi's statement that their banks do not know about this 15th april thing, does anyone believe that chinese banks can close exchanges accounts in 11 days without notice ? Can new rulings be enforced so abruptly and with no official communication ?
Is Huobi a credible source?
So you think Huobi just made up a lie about his communication with those 4 big banks ?
OKCoin confirmed bank ban
"We received a clear Merchants Bank, Shenzhen Branch of China Construction Bank's notice, that it could not continue to provide settlement for the Bitcoin industry, so we can not continue to use the public accounts, the more feasible the personal card. We also consulted the United States, livelihood and other banks, the other account services are unable to provide feedback. Some people say that the era of deliberately shutting down recharge deliberately operate covertly, and if so, we would not have spread the OKCOIN."

anyone got a link to Australia banning BTC too?
It's not Australian Gvt, only one big bank :

well technically it is the government if the bank is nationalised!
Let me rephrase this : the government did not issue a law to ban bitcoin in Australia. The bank only made a "strategic" decision, nothing to do with law.
This thread has the best collection of train pictures ever. Really nice specimens here.
I would think that anyone who knows a little about how the U. S. Government works would have guessed quite accurately when and how the auction would take place. They must dispose of any property that they seize according to the law. They had neither the choice nor the motivation to keep the coins, trade with them, or sell them in a private deal.
Couldn't they just "destroy" them, as they do for illegal stuff like drugs ? (send them to a random address and not store the private key)
The fact that they sell them instead of destroying them has a strong meaning.
