Comment(by OlgieD):

 I'm not going to pretend to know too much about the internals of Tor, so
 may not be able to contribute much to the actual development, but do know
 a few things about security and networks.
 The thought I had, considering the GFW filters all passing traffic, is it
 possible source and destination are probed for tor signatures, and
 subsequently blocked if found? That would explain why even new bridges are
 quickly blocked.
 I realize there would be a massive amount of streams going in and out of
 China.
