Крипто во Казахстан
Откако стана едно од најпопуларните места во светот за ископување криптовалути поради ниските цени на енергијата, Казахстан беше принуден да воведе ограничувања додека мрежата на земјата се бореше со енергетска криза претходно оваа година. Следствено, властите се обидуваат да ги искоренат нелегалните операции за ископување крипто.
Kazakhstan also воведе a new tax regime for cryptocurrency miners, in order to better take advantage of the profits being generated there. “At the moment we are also considering linking the tax rate for miners to the value of the cryptocurrency,” said Minister of National Economy, Alibek Kuantyrov.
