Since the last one year, Bitcoin, a crypto currency has constantly been in the news for its unprecedented bull run.  A cryptocurrency is a digital asset designed to work as a medium of exchange wherein individual coin ownership records are stored in a ledger existing in a form of computerized database using strong cryptography.  This is done in order to secure transaction records, to control the creation of additional coins, and to verify the transfer of coin ownership.  Cryptocurrency does not exist in paper or physical form and is not issued by a central authority like banks, which is why it is fast gaining popularity among the masses.  

Bitcoin was in a bull run when news about Elon Musk owned Tesla invested $ 1.5 billion in Bitcoin and also said it would begin accepting payments for its vehicles in Bitcoin.  Tesla’s latest investment saw Bitcoin surging ahead to an all time high value of $ 47,000 per coin on the very day of the investment.  Since the day of Tesla’s investment, Bitcoin crossed the $ 50,000 mark.  

However, just two weeks since the Tesla investment, Elon Musk tweeted about how the prices of Bitcoin and another crypto currency Ethereum seemed high.  Since then Bitcoin prices have begun to fall and Tesla Inc. shares slid 8.6 % on February 23rd, wiping $ 15.2 billion from Elon Musk’s net worth.  Following the reduction is his net worth, Elon Musk dropped to second place on the Bloomberg Billionaires Index of the world’s 500 richest people with a net worth $ 183.4 billion.  Amazon founder Jeff Bezos overtook Musk to take the title of the world’s richest man.

Bitcoin is the first cryptocurrency to be created and is the oldest among the tens of other currencies which exist currently.  Bitcoin is also the preferred choice of cryptocurrency for retail investors and its popularity is drawing multiple venture capitalists and entrepreneurs to invest in the cryptocurrency.  However, crypto currency enthusiasts are hopeful the bearish outlook is only temporary and Bitcoin would bounce back.

Dunzo Gets Breather as NCLT Rejects Insolvency Petition from Invoice Discounters

Dunzo

The National Company Law Tribunal (NCLT) Bengaluru bench has dismissed an insolvency plea filed against quick commerce startup Dunzo by its invoice discounters, declaring the petition “not maintainable” after several postponements. This decision offers temporary relief to Dunzo, which has been facing multiple insolvency petitions from various creditors, including Velvin Packaging Solutions and Betterplace Safety Solutions, over unpaid dues.

The invoice discounters alleged that Dunzo had paid only 50% of the required amounts, though the exact sum was not disclosed. Despite ongoing settlement talks, no resolution was reached, and the tribunal noted Dunzo’s delays in responding to creditor petitions. Dunzo continues to grapple with severe liquidity issues, delayed payments, and significant losses—reporting a ₹1,801.8 crore loss in FY23 and owing approximately ₹11.4 crore to major vendors like Google India and Facebook India.

While this NCLT ruling provides Dunzo some breathing room, the company still faces ongoing financial and operational challenges as it works to resolve its outstanding liabilities.
