Chinese crypto-mining equipment makers plan to get listed in Hong Kong; major international airlines are beginning to pad their schedules with extra time to give the impression that the aircraft are arriving on time; diesel and petrol prices have hit new record high. BusinessToday.In Editor Rajeev Dubey explains this and more on The Good, The Bad and The Ugly.

British businessman Raj Kundra was summoned and questioned for 10 hours by Enforcement Directorate officials in Mumbai on Tuesday in connection with the Rs 2,000-crore Bitcoin scam case.

It seems that the Modi government's distrust of cryptocurrencies is surpassed only by its keenness to tax that gravy boat.

According to digital currency group Coindesk, over $490 million were flushed out of the cryptocurrency market due to wallet hacks in 2017 alone. The report says so far, none of the perpetrators of these crimes have been brought to book.

Touted as a cryptocurrency guru in India, businessman and bitcoin entrepreneur Amit Bhardwaj has been arrested for allegedly scamming investors out of Rs 2,000 crore in Maharashtra alone.

The report, also reveals that India ranks second in Asia-Pacific Japan region, when it comes to cryptojacking and is the ninth most affected country around the world.

Regulators hate it, investors love it. The great tussle to find the middle ground for cryptocurrencies...

The cryptocurrency market has been in the red for a few days now, following news reports of regulatory crackdown in South Korea and China.

This morning, Bitcoin was down 17 per cent , Ethereum was down 21 per cent, Litecoin had dropped 20 per cent and Ripple a whopping 30 per cent.

Mining the cryptocurrency requires a staggering amount of energy, which is contributing to global warming. See how:

Investors are latching on to Litecoin not only because Bitcoin is now so expensive and possibly overdone, but also because it is actually a better alternative as it is more stable and has a lifetime cap of 84 million coins.

Tax sleuths conducted 'surveys' at as many as nine Bitcoin exchanges in the country. During the investigation, the I-T department looked for evidence to establish identity of investors and traders, transactions undertaken by the Bitcoin traders in India.

The I-T department has claimed the surveys were conducted under Section 133A of the India Tax Act at nine bitcoin exchanges in Delhi, Bengaluru, Hyderabad, Kochi and Gurugram by various teams headed by the I-T Department's Bengaluru wing.

In India, like many other countries, legal loopholes around the most popular cryptocurrency has opened a Pandora's box for tax authorities.

Even as the world debates the status of bitcoin, unabated buying continues, exposing investors to risks.

Bitcoin's supply is limited to 21 million - a number that is expected to be reached around the year 2140. So far, around 16.7 million bitcoins have been released into the system, with 12.5 new ones released roughly every 10 minutes via a process called 'mining''.

Every day Bitcoin is setting up a new benchmark, luring you to become a part of this unpredictable financial cycle. At the same time, some financial institutions have debunked the \"bitcoin mania\", calling it a \"fraud\". Should you still invest?

Experts cite the launching of bitcoin futures by the CBOE, one of the world's biggest derivatives exchanges, a major reason behind the sharp jump.
