JUST IN: South Korea may delay its 22% crypto tax for the FOURTH time, potentially pushing it to 2029.
A bill from the ruling Democratic Party proposes postponing the tax from January 2027.
The concern? South Korean authorities face difficulties tracking trades on overseas crypto platforms before global tax information-sharing systems are fully implemented.
The presidential office says a delay is under review, but no final decision has been made.
If approved, a tax originally scheduled for 2022 would have been delayed by seven years.
South Korea's crypto tax debate is far from over.
