Japan Moves Toward 20% Flat Crypto Tax

[madtrader]

Japan is close to slashing its crypto tax rate to a flat 20%, aligning digital assets with equities and investment funds.
Current rates top out at 55%, pushing many investors offshore.
The government and ruling coalition now back the plan, with a bill set for early 2026. Big moment for Japan’s crypto revival.
