An introduction to cryptocurrency

This week we look at all aspects of cryptocurrency - and start by explaining the year it's had.

Cryptocurrency has had a difficult year - with the collapse of FTX which was once valued at more than $30bn, unsettling the wider industry, sparking bankruptcy filings at other firms and further declines in crypto values. Rahul Tandon is joined by Peter Morici in the United States and Mehmal Sarfraz in Pakistan to look at the year Crypto has had - in the first of our week-long series on crypto, running across World Business Report and Business Matters.

Elsewhere we look at the snowstorms hitting the US, and discuss China and Covid in 2022.
