China continues to expand its internet censorship, putting pressure on crypto media, mining pools and exchanges. This is part of an effort to reduce Chinese access to the cryptocurrency ecosystem.

Chinese Crypto media outlets are shutting down

Chainnews, one of China's most prominent crypto media companies founded in 2017, has closed all content production and distribution channels. Bitcoin Magazine reported the mobile apps and web domains of three Chinese crypto media outlets Chainnews, ODaily, and BlockBeats have been barely accessible since the beginning of the month. Since then, they have switched to the official Telegram channels to keep users updated and have set up new web domains.

However, it seems that the editor-in-chief of Chainnews has changed his mind and announced that the platform will be shut down completely, thanking everyone who has been loyal to it over the years. This comes a few months after popular market price information websites like CoinMarketCap, CoinGecko, and TradingView were blocked by China's "Great Firewall."

Mining Pools have been blocked

According to a recent document published by China Telecom, the leading Chinese Internet service provider has developed a detailed solution to detect domestic miner IPs communicating with mining pool URLs. Based on the ongoing detection, China Telecom can either block Internet services for specific IPs or manually block the URLs that mining pools use to connect to individual devices.

The domains of nearly all of the top 10 mining pools by real-time hashrate for Bitcoin and Ethereum are inaccessible from IPs within China. For F2Pool, ViaBTC, BinancePool, and BTC.com, the real-time hash rate for Bitcoin and Ethereum has dropped by about 10% in the last 24 hours. ViaBTC users reported onTelegram that they are having difficulty accessing the pool.

Frequently Asked Questions

Yes. We've consistently identified winners across multiple cycles. Bitcoin under $1,000, Ethereum under $70, Solana under $10, WIF from $0.003 to $5, PopCat from $0.004 to $2, SPX blasting past $1.70, and our latest pick has already 200X'd since June 2025. Everything is timestamped and public record.

No. When we founded Cryptonary in 2017 the market was new to everyone. We intentionally created content that was easy to understand and actionable. That foundational principle is the crux of Cryptonary. Taking complex ideas and opportunities and presenting them in a way a 10 year old could understand.

Signal vs noise. We filter out 99.9% of garbage projects, provide data backed analysis, and have a proven track record of finding winners. Not to mention since Cryptonary's inception in 2017 we have never taken investment, sponsorship or partnership. Compare this to pretty much everyone else, no track record, and a long list of partnerships that cloud judgements.

We share highly sensitive, time-critical research. Once it's out, it can't be "returned." That's why membership is annual only. Crypto success takes time and commitment. If someone is not willing to invest 12 months into their future, there is no place for them at Cryptonary.

Our team has over 50 years of combined experience which you can tap into every single day.

Daily. We provide real-time updates, weekly reports, emergency alerts, and live Q&As when the markets move fast. In crypto, the market moves fast, in Cryptonary, we move faster.

If our approach to the market doesn’t beat the overall crypto market during your subscription, we’ll give you a full refund of your membership fee. No questions asked. For quarterly and monthly subscribers this is applicable once your subscription runs for 6 consecutive months.
