The crypto China narrative is relevant on crypto Twitter, it is gathering steam with People Bank of China’s liquidity injection in its economy. Over the past week, the PBoC injected $73 billion into its banking system. The Central bank took similar actions on an equally high scale during the COVID-19 crisis in early 2020.
The PBoC’s actions are directed at stimulating the domestic economy that has been ongoing since the beginning of 2023. The Chinese Central bank's actions are correlated with the Bitcoin price bottom and this makes it crucial to the resumption of the cryptocurrency bull run.
