South Korea’s government has reportedly imposed a tax on the domestic Cryptocurrency exchanges.

To be specific, they will be subject to a 24.2% tax (22% coporate and 2.2% local income taxes). According to Yonhap News Agency, the government is also requiring exchanges to share the transaction data with banks.

Tom Lee, a strategy analyst, reckoned there would be a dramatic drop in Bitcoin price down to $8,000-9,000, followed by a sharp increase to above $20,000 by the end of 2018.

This year is anticipated to be a rough, yet successful year to wise investors in this market.

this could lead to two endings, either the exchanges in south korea start to die out, or they simply pay 24.2% of their incomes as tax, which is not much actually.


Actually, that tax rates in S Korea is normal. The S. Korea is known to be the highest taxing government, the 24.2% Income tax is nothing if you are earning a lot from Cryptocurrency.

the problem starts when they start to investigate where the people with those cryptoreturns are cause then no one will like to use those korean exchanges,

but i doubt states will be able to survive with their difficult taxation system the new digital and cryptoeconomic age.

but seriously folks i am questioning myself, since quite a while, how long are you going to evaluate cryptocurrencies in US dollar, i mean what are you going to do when the US dollar evaluation is gone?
