Some members of Solana’s Chinese community have reportedly expressed concerns that attendees were denied entry to a blockchain event as the country continues its crackdown on digital assets.

According to a Wednesday report from the South China Morning Post, the Solana Accelerate APAC series event being held in Shenzhen on Tuesday was cut short amid claims of overcrowding, “leading the local police to conduct an inquiry on site.”

Event organizers confirmed the venue had exceeded capacity and canceled the final hackathon “for public safety,” per the report. The police presence, however, reignited concerns on social media, with attendees reportedly expressing concerns about the country’s enforcement of crypto and blockchain.
