Of course Zuckerberg wants to bow to Chinese censorship
The Chinese market isn&#x27;t going to be as lucrative in a few months when they get labeled as a currency manipulator. I&#x27;ve heard the free market value of Yuan to USD is about 24.8:1, while the current official exchange rate is 6.91:1. And of course the Chinese are willing to invest that money at a loss(in Bitcoin, property, etc.) as long as it gets outside of the country before the currency implodes; not even the Chinese want to invest in China.<p>Obviously capturing another billion people is a big deal either way, but I think they&#x27;re going to be disappointed in their Chinese revenue in a year if they expected it to continue like it is now. I&#x27;m sure Zuckerberg has some financial advisors, but I can&#x27;t see why anyone would want to invest there knowing the currency inflation that&#x27;s coming over the next 2 years. I guess software isn&#x27;t that much of a capital investment, comparatively speaking. Depending on how Zuckerberg structures this and how much USD he&#x27;s putting in and at what rates, it might be worth buying some options against Facebook.<p>Though, if Facebook can get in now, I&#x27;m predicting riots in a year or two, and &#x27;accidentally&#x27; having some problems with the anti-censorship systems could end up helping the protesters at a particularly important time. Who knows.
