I am one of the many to be affected by the time when the approved tax laws can be implemented in my country. Personally, I love the fact that there can be a regulating law in place for cryptocurrency but am sad at the same time because this can mean less take out with the money we earned...and at today's economic climate where inflation is taking a big toll on people's income this can be a salt to the wound. But then again, in my country, people can be so creative in terms of not paying the tax...so am sure we can find many good ways to not be detected. Here, most of the businesses are taking advantage of loopholes to lessen the tax rate to pay.
