When it comes to NFTs, China hasn’t taken an entire hard-line stance against it, and companies in the country have either made their NFT debuts or plan to do so soon.
In January, the Blockchain Services Network, a company with the Chinese government backing, shared plans to roll out infrastructure to facilitate the trade of NFTs within the country. After a deep look into the situation, it doesn’t seem like China hates the technology; they are committed to NFT and related tech; the most significant problem the Chinese authorities have is control.

As time goes on, it’ll be intriguing to witness how the NFT space will grow and develop in China; will we witness more state-backed NFT stakeholders, or will the market one day open up and accept the principles on which these technologies were built.
