Huobi has left the Chinese market

As reported by U.Today, in the fall last year Huobi made a decision to withdraw from the Chinese market and shut down trading of crypto against CNY by December 31. CNY deposit and spot trading was frozen in mid-December.

Users of other regions, apart from the mainland China, remained unaffected by this move.

As a reminder, multiple crypto exchanges started mass exodus from the Chinese market after the Chinese government published a document in late September that declared all operations with cryptocurrencies illegal.

Prior to that, similar actions were taken against crypto miners and they began migrating from China to other locations – Canada, Kazakhstan and the US. However, due to the recent unrest in Kazakhstan, increase of gas tariffs, it is likely that miners will decide to leave for the US or other locations that offer friendly work conditions and cheap electricity to miners.

The temporary shutdown of the Internet in Kazakhstan caused a massive drop in the Bitcoin hashrate and was one of the reasons for Bitcoin's plunge from the $46,500 area down to $43,000.
