Bitcoin had a significant decrease recently, momentarily falling below $60,000 following a peak of $70,000 in early June. The decline, which started on June 22 and reached a low of $58,580, was caused by events like the German governments large Bitcoin payment and Mt. Goxs declaration that it would be repaying Bitcoin to the 2014 breach victims. Due to selling pressure brought on by the flood of Bitcoin into the market, its price was impacted. But since then, Bitcoin has recovered and is now steady at $61,000.

John Stankey, the CEO of AT&T, said that the Federal Communications Commission FCC should have the power to require Big Tech companies to make payment

Stankey maintained that large IT firms, who have prospered from the internet infrastructure, must contribute to providing reasonably priced access to essential services.

Sources acquainted with the situation claim that the erupee, Indias digital currency, has faced tremendous obstacles in obtaining public acceptability
