However, recent rumors suggest that China is now set to unban crypto after three years. The rumors originated from Tron founder Justin Sun, tweet, who asked,

Mixed reactions from crypto analysts

The rumors have been received by skepticism and excitement in equal measures. Various analysts have shared their excitement about the potential positive impact of millions of new users in the crypto space.

For instance, blchs noted through his official X (Twitter) page that,

” China’s decision to unban Crypto could be a game-changer, potentially bringing +100M new users into the crypto space in 2024. “

Despite the mixed reactions, analysts are betting big on BIAO.

BIAO is the leading meme-coin in China, and the news has left everyone excited about a potential bull run. Crypto analyst Toney predicted a 133% surge. Through his analysis, he noted that,

“$biao @biaoerc20 WTF $biao is up 50% in 24h. looks like something big is coming. Biao is the most popular meme in China. China is about to unban Crypto. x100 from here.”

The news of the Chinese market has caused a buzz around BIAO, thus increasing its market prices. The memecoin was trading at $0.002873 at press time, after a 28% surge on daily charts and 119% on weekly charts.

According to CoinMarketCap, its trading volume has surged by 209.7%. Thus, a potentially favorable legal status in China would see BIAO surge to a record high.

Additionally, trading activities would positively impact the Tron network in terms of revenue inflow.

According to Bitcoin Runes Hub, the surge of this meme-coin would inject over $1 billion into the Tron chain.

The analyst noted that,

“There is coming a $1 billion coin on TRON chain. And it’s gonna be $FOFAR, $BIAO or $SUNDOG. $BIAO is the largest meme in Asia with a doxxed team as well.”
