Control over crypto traders began to be strengthened by many countries. South Korea, for example, will force all users of bitcoin exchanges to pay tax to the treasury from 2022.
Argentina is also acting in a similar direction. The country’s tax office this week ordered all crypto exchanges to provide information about investor transactions.
In addition, trading platforms will have to indicate in the data of their reports on traders of interest to tax authorities. As noted by the local publication Bae Negocios, the exchanges are committed to identifying crypto traders.
It is necessary to provide information about transactions every month by the 15th day.
