Pakistan is announcing SBR while Indian government crippled the crypto industry with punitive taxes (30% flat tax, no loss offset, no loss carry forward, penalties and what not). Incredible self goal.
@getkoinx In a recent interview with @bitinning / @simplykashif, @a__punit mentioned (~30:20 mark in https://t.co/wglyQN1Jgi) we could also use $0 cost basis acquisition for India. Is that correct?

Day 1101: Not allowing loss offset is the least fair approach—how can something be called "income" and taxed when losses aren’t accounted for? Fair taxation must reflect actual gains, not just selective profits! #reducecryptotax#faircryptotax#IndiaWantsCrypto@FinMinIndia
Everytime the Indian government announces something about crypto, it is punitive. Every move seems to be designed to push the crypto ecosystem even more underground. How much more will you punish Indian crypto investors @nsitharaman@nsitharamanoffc?
@IndiaToday@nsitharaman@rahulkanwal@sahiljoshii@sakshibatra18@szarabi While David Sacks is about to make major crypto announcements for the US, we are stuck with regressive tax policies in India. Imagine not even letting us offset our losses against gains. Locking up 1% for every transaction. Everything is designed to punish crypto investors.
We will heavily tax your crypto gains. But not let you adjust them with other income. Not even against crypto losses (!). And deduct 1% on every transaction. But we are not against distributed ledger technologies. Lol. India must have the most cruel crypto stance in the world.
Kudos to @rahulkanwal asked the right questions to Finance Minister Nirmala Sitharaman on crypto.🔥
- Govt says they support blockchain but continue enforcing heavy taxation (TDS).
- 97% of trading left India
- ₹6,000 Cr revenue lost
- Web3 talent moving abroad
Does this serve India's best interests? Time to adjust before it’s too late

@simplykashif@rahulkanwal Every government announcement on crypto has been negative till date - taxes, penalties, punishments. Never has there been any positive news. And every time they are asked about crypto, they just say the same thing: "we support blockchain (...but not crypto)". Still stuck in 2014
@DSBatten@SenWarren@nytimes Exactly: https://t.co/s8E5OIBl9h
If Bitcoin is the reason for an increase in prices in Texas, what about literally almost every other State? They are deliberately blaming Bitcoin to drum up public outrage.
(cells in green are the only sectors and States with a decrease in prices)
Many investors that bought crypto wanted to withdraw to personal wallets. Most exchanges don't support this feature for whatever reasons. Now who will take responsibility of the funds lost? Investors have no other choice than holding their assets on these exchanges.
Never forget that Indian Cex'es/Bharat Web3 Association lobbied against foreign Cex'es like Binance to get them blocked in India and then stopped crypto withdrawals from their own exchanges in the name of customer protection. The result of that "protection" is for all to see:
BREAKING:🇮🇳 Indian Exchange Hacked 😳
#WazirX India’s secure multisig wallet on the Ethereum network has been compromised.
A total of $234.9 million has been transferred to a new address.
The suspicious address has exchanged PEPE, GALA, and USDT for Ethereum and continues to swap other digital assets.
