Background
Cryptocurrency still remains a mystical subject for many keen investors in India.

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 November 11, Bitcoin price stood at $17,041.42, as per CoinMarketCap data. At the time of writing, the global crypto market cap stood at $858.06 billion, registering a gain of 3.76 per cent in the last 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, 2022, VDAs attract taxation of 30 per cent on gains. A TDS of 1 per cent is applied on top of that.
