"Not sure why they saw a need in banning bitcoin though."
Eliminate any competition. China will do everything in its considerable power IMHO to undermine any threat to their "virtual currency." Their people are not free to choose otherwise ...
With some programming experience myself, I have thought some day I may turn some time and attention to learning more about programming "in here." If that day comes, you will be one of those whose experience I will be very interested in.

Take care! 👍🙂
