    Ahh yes, China is going to collapse with its measly 5.2% growth despite global economic malaise.

    I've already converted all my fiat currency to various crypto including a modest sizing of Monero so I can anonymously transfer my money when China takes over our financial systems

    I implore everybody else to do the same. The writing has been on the wall for decades

      Convert your fiat to crypto and prepare to transfer wealth across borders with Monero

      When China falls they'll take us all down with them together

    China bet hard on developing countries because the developed world isn't growing at a rate that can keep up with China's economic growth targets. In fact, we're very quickly running towards the crossover point for Chinese trade dependence on the West vs. on the rest of the world.

    Also, a big chunk of Chinese exports to the West is in computers and consumer electronics... Markets which have seen a huge slowdown due to commoditization and aggressive political lobbying from the US.

        Spamming the entire comment section with this. But maybe, diversify back into some fiat

    China's economic crisis has the world in a panic? Well, at least they're diversifying their export portfolio by shipping out anxiety and uncertainty in bulk!
