Ukraine is trying to control cryptocurrency in circulation by providing additional taxes for those who use cryptocurrency, so I think the government already knows the potential that exists in cryptocurrency so they choose to seek cryptocurrency from the taxes provided by its users.
Yeah taxes in Ukraine regarding Cryptocurrency I think are the same as blackmail carried out by criminals covered by the government.
It doesn't really sound good for crypto investors in Ukraine. I hope this is just a temporary thing and in the future, when Ukraine will join the EU, the MiCA law may also be accepted and enforced. At that time, every investor in the EU will be equal and have the most suitable environment to invest and earn profits from crypto!
What happened was very unpleasant for me, a resident of Ukraine and a lover of cryptocurrencies. What’s not pleasant is that they are introducing a dubious taxation scheme (there are options to “optimize” taxes). The most unpleasant thing is that today's government is highly corrupt and has built a corrupt management system. And it is precisely this approach that has created the biggest problem - we are losing the opportunity to become INVESTMENT ATTRACTIVE in such a sector of the economy as cryptocurrencies. The initial option was very good - a long grace period for taxation, acceptable taxes (I am a supporter of the idea of "taxes must be paid"), opening the market to investors. Then everything came down to primitive total control and an idiotic, unattractive taxation system.
I hope that after the war, Ukraine will have significant reforms in many aspects of society: politics, economics, diplomacy. I believe that President Volodymyr Zelenskyy is a patriot, he will do everything to protect and ensure the development of Ukraine!
Crypto can be a potential field to revive the economy, hopefully crypto will contribute to the reconstruction and construction in Ukraine!
