Cryptocurrency News Live: 3AC Founders Go Missing After Liquidation And Bankruptcy

Background

Cryptocurrency still remains a mystical subject for many keen investors in India. While cryptos are slowly gaining recognition from investors and regulators alike, with countries and leading brands adopting it as an official tender, there are still a sizeable number of people who wish to invest in crypto, but aren't able to closely track breaking and developing news in the sector, which will help them take note of price movements, major sell-offs, and announcements of new blockchain-based developments. 

This live news blog is here to help. From major market losses to noteworthy declarations, follow this live blog to stay updated with all the latest happenings in the world of crypto.

While there are many cryptocurrencies to explore, Bitcoin (BTC) is the most popular as it is the world's oldest and most valued crypto coin. As of July 12, Bitcoin price stood at $19,923.35, as per CoinMarketCap data. At the time of writing, the global crypto market cap stood at $886.56 billion, registering a dip of 3.45 percent in the past 24 hours. 

While cryptocurrency is unregulated in India, cryptocurrencies are clubbed under virtual digital assets (VDAs). Under the new tax regime that went into effect on April 1 this year, VDAs attract taxation of 30 percent on gains. A TDS of 1 percent will be applied on top of that. 

Disclaimer: Crypto products and NFTs are unregulated and can be highly risky. There may be no regulatory recourse for any loss from such transactions. Cryptocurrency is not a legal tender and is subject to market risks. Readers are advised to seek expert advice and read offer document(s) along with related important literature on the subject carefully before making any kind of investment whatsoever. Cryptocurrency market predictions are speculative and any investment made shall be at the sole cost and risk of the readers.

Seven traders told Reuters that despite the sanction and the ban, Binance continued to process trades as recently as September 2021.

'Robust' Global Crypto Rules To Be Proposed By G20 Watchdog In October

The recent turmoils in the global crypto market have left many organisations and government bodies calling for the need to regulate the speculative sector. Under this backdrop, the Group of Twenty (G20) watchdog Financial Stability Board (FSB) said on July 11 that it plans to propose a set of “robust” global rules for cryptocurrencies in October. The crypto market has been facing an unprecedented meltdown since May this year, starting with the de-pegging of the TerraUSD stablecoin. This eventually led to LUNA losing nearly all its value and the Bitcoin (BTC) price plunging to as low as $18,000 last month.
