Main Idea

A survey by the Japan Blockchain Association (JBA) found that most Japanese would buy more Bitcoin and other cryptocurrencies if the government introduced a flat 20% tax rate on crypto profits, instead of the current high tax rates.

Key Points

1. 13% of 1,500 surveyed Japanese adults own crypto, and 84% of them would buy more if a flat 20% tax rate was implemented.

2. 12% of non-crypto holders would start buying if tax reforms were approved.

3. Currently, Japanese crypto traders pay up to 55% tax on profits, categorized as 'other income,' while many other nations apply capital gains tax.

4. The JBA and key political figures support a flat 20% capital gains tax, but the Financial Services Agency (FSA) has the final say on crypto policy.

5. The survey also revealed that 61% of non-investors cited high taxes as a reason for not investing in crypto.
