Bitcoin and cryptocurrency round-up: 4 April 2018

What's happening in crypto?
The flying blockchain, March scoreboard, Litecoin analytics, Korea's bitcoin blues and new Australian regulations.

3. The wildly fluctuating prices represent stability

4. Breaking news: bitcoin is responsible for all of South Korea's problems

5. Cautious notes of optimism signify continuing headline vagary

Find out from worldwide industry experts.
