Excuse me, I've been hearing a lot about Bybit lately, and I'm quite interested in it. However, I'm a bit concerned about its legality in China. Could you please clarify for me if Bybit is legal in China? I've searched online but the information seems to be quite mixed. Some sources say it's legal while others suggest it's not. It would be great if you could provide some clarity on this matter. Thank you in advance for your help.

    This decision is likely due to regulatory considerations and compliance with local laws.

    This trend reflects the increasing scrutiny and regulations surrounding the cryptocurrency industry in China.
