South Korea's Bitcoin Bonanza

While in South Korea for the Winter Olympics, CNBC's Carl Quintanilla takes a look at the surge in cryptocurrency trading in the country and what regulations could come from the government.

South Korea, it should be noted, is now exploring its options, including a Bitlicense-style system for cryptocurrency exchanges.

CNBC also asked athletes at the 2018 Winter Olympics in Pyeongchang, South Korea, about whether they had invested in bitcoin.

Speaking of the games, be sure to check out Bitcoin Games - NO REGISTRATION REQUIRED - INSTANT PAYOUTS and a proud new sponsor of the Gambling911.com website.
