Ex-UBS banker: China could sharply boost crypto market if it allows trading
- —Joseph Chee formerly led UBS investment banking in Asia; now executive chairman of Solana Company
- —He says access for Chinese investors would sharply raise demand for BTC and other coins
- —He conditions this on authorities properly managing crypto trading risks
- —China reaffirmed its crypto trading ban in February 2026, with no reopening timeline
Why it matters: China is the largest untapped source of demand; even hints of easing could fuel bullish expectations, though policy remains unchanged for now.
