It is not just the miners. Say I buy BTC in gray market using local currency. How do I ensure the seller transferred BTC to my wallet. I will have to check the block chain to be sure of the transfer. Assuming great firewall is blocking all the BTC wallet clients in china through normal routes, satellite feed can still be used for verification.
