did i just read that EU made BTC tax free EU-wide ?
NO
bitcoin was already vat (or as the yanks call sales tax) free.. it has been for 6 years, what has happened is that they have ruled that they wont suddenly make it a VAT inclusive product, and thus keep it at its currency status..
just remember everything is free until its ruled to not be. so dont assume the courts or governments make it free.. they simply decide not to be greedy
