I'm not sure you understand China very well, but let me put it like this - it's a hierarchical structure of a society. Rules based, age/seniority based. From my understanding, the underlying ethos in Bitcoin is to subvert hierarchies, skirt the rules and decentralize power. This ethos is anathema to Chinese society, which lived this way for thousands of years thankyouverymuch.
The two 'cultures', if you can call a collection of memes, messages boards, talented software engineers and financial pseudo-science a 'culture', are simply incompatible. That's just how it is, and it's why China was so ahead of the curve in delegitimizing Bitcoin.
