Get ready for Bitcoin in the news.
It broke $200 USD and passed CNY 1337 (just how cool is that?), and still has strong upwards pressure. Though there is a wall currently at $206 USD, it seems the psychological pressure is pushing up from $200. The days of $100 BTC are gone.
Both BitStamp and BTCChina have overtaken Mt.Gox in BTC volume.

(You can see the red dot in that screenshot under "30 days" - that's the Silk Road theft/destruction and kidnapping of the Dread Pirate Roberts, Ross Ulbricht.)
We'll see another flurry of activity in about 1.5 to 2 hours when the east coast of North America wakes up.
In this clip, an analyst talks about how the Chinese government is bitcoin-friendly:

It's cued up to that part.
So far, it seems like nothing is remotely close to hindering Bitcoin. The Silk Road incident only led to a much stronger bitcoin. The strong demand for BTC in China has driven up bitcoin prices, and that's likely to continue with the kinds of volumes that we've been seeing.

And here come the media reports:

After Silk Road Closure, And With Baidu’s Blessing, Bitcoin Breaks $200 Again
The value of a single Bitcoin has broken the $200 mark for only the second time. The cost of a single Bitcoin hit a high of more than $205 earlier today on the biggest Bitcoin exchange, Mt. Gox, although it’s since dipped slightly. At the time of writing it’s still trading at above $200.
