Brazil’s Crypto Investors to Pay Taxes on Cryptocurrency Trading Profits

Brazil’s Federal Reserve (RFB) has stated that Brazilian investors in the crypto-asset market must pay income tax on transactions involving cryptocurrency pairs. The Federal Revenue of Brazil wants investors to pay taxes on cryptocurrency trading profits, even if there is no exchange for Brazil’s national currency. The taxable investors who pay income tax are those who trade more than BRL 35,000 (roughly $7263.67). Also, capital gains earned on the sale of cryptocurrencies are exempted from income tax. That is, “if the sales value in a month, of all kinds of crypto assets or virtual currencies, regardless of their name, is equal to or less than BRL 35,000, 00 (thirty-five thousand reais),” as declared by the RFB.

Nevertheless, the bears are attempting to break below the $28,600 support as breakout or breakdown is imminent. There is a likelihood of price breakout or breakdown in a couple of days.
