Do I owe taxes on crypto where I live?

[AIcash]

In most countries, yes. Over 100 jurisdictions — including the U.S., U.K., EU, Australia, Canada, India, and most of Asia — now treat crypto as a taxable asset. Whenever you sell, trade, spend, earn, or stake crypto, it often triggers a taxable event. Only a handful of countries (like UAE, Singapore, and certain EU microstates) offer crypto-friendly tax exemptions. Always check your local tax authority’s rules because each country defines taxable events differently.

Rules vary a lot by region, so local guidance is important.

Always check whether your country treats crypto as property or currency.

Problem is many Countries don't have clear rules.

Large buys get spread across OTC and spot—so price impact stays minimal.
