Alibaba would stop selling cryptocurrencies and cryptocurrency mining gear on its platform due to China's ban on cryptocurrency trading and mining.
To apply China's ban, Alibaba will terminate two of its product categories, Blockchain Miners and Blockchain Miner Accessories.

The penalties would include the removal or deletion of the listed products, deduction of points, website function restrictions, and account closures.
