Germany announced tax free for all crypto users. I don't know about other countries but tax are paid directly or indirectly by each one. Traders may not be charged taxes for their transactions but indirectly, they pay their quota of tax to the exchanges where the trading is done.

Holding is much more better, but one will still have to trade when the time comes.

The green time is the time for merriment, but the red is where the strong will have to survive or regret their heard made decision. Crypto is fun and it has to be on both losses and gains.
