The report concludes that personal property and money should be treated from a &ldquo;standpoint of legality.&rdquo;&nbsp;This comes after the Chinese government declared a blanket ban on all private cryptocurrencies in 2021 enforcing a major clampdown on web3 firms and influencers in mainland China.<figure class="media"><oembed url="https://twitter.com/cryptonews/status/1442822129179938821?s=46&amp;t=sCvh3f3rMDfXyJcf1y1Eyg"></oembed></figure>Despite the ban, Chinese courts have made several pronouncements in sharp contrast with the decision establishing that digital assets have legal backing as personal property.This year, a district court in Shanghai ruled on Bitcoin's ownership right after it ruled in favor of a Bitcoin owner's right to compensation over an unpaid loan.&nbsp;The ratio of the court was based on Bitcoin&rsquo;s value and scarcity it falls under the spectrum of personal property.<h2 id="is-a-change-of-stance-imminent">Is a change of stance imminent?&nbsp;</h2>&nbsp;The Chinese government has been at loggerheads with digital assets leading to a blanket ban on all private cryptocurrencies in the country.&nbsp;In 2021, the government <a href="https://cryptonews.com/news/another-year-another-crypto-ban-in-china-10358.htm">announced</a> a ban on all crypto transactions including exchanges, influencers, and other related groups.The People&rsquo;s Bank of China cited market risks for its citizens stating that the move will protect investors from prevalent scams and the country&rsquo;s economy.&nbsp;<blockquote>&ldquo;Virtual currency-related business activities are illegal financial activities&hellip;it seriously endangers the safety of people's assets.&rdquo;&nbsp;</blockquote>The Chinese ban hit the industry the most following the enforcement of total mining restrictions in the country as cities cited energy concerns after falling short of their climate quota.Over the last two years, reports have described China&rsquo;s stance as shifting as its Bitcoin&rsquo;s miners share is back to second globally.&nbsp;The recent digital asset revolution in Hong Kong leading to new firms offering trading services and the development of blockchain projects in the jurisdictions has been tipped as a &ldquo;test net&rdquo; for mainland China.&nbsp;Recall that reports made rounds in China's plan to transplant its <a href="https://cryptonews.com/news/china-wants-implement-social-credit-system-with-digital-ids-metaverse.htm">social credit</a> ID system to the metaverse as it pushes its views with the International Telecommunications Union (ITU) against the United States and Europe.China also leads in the development of a Central Bank Digital Currency (<a href="https://cryptonews.com/tags/CBDC">CBDC</a>) as the country continues to expand its use cases for the digital yuan incorporating several parts of the economy including banks and transportation while pushing cross-border transactions.<figure class="media"><oembed url="https://twitter.com/cryptonews/status/1697527107662807348?s=46&amp;t=sCvh3f3rMDfXyJcf1y1Eyg"></oembed></figure>
