High Bitcoin Taxes in Japan Raise Demand for Proxies
Although Japan is among the most crypto-friendly nations in the market, the taxation of Bitcoin as “miscellaneous income” subjects gains to rates as high as 55%. This is significantly higher than the 20% tax applied to standard capital gains. As a result, investors have been looking for Bitcoin proxy bets like Metaplanet instead of directly engaging with BTC.
Gains from Metaplanet shares are taxed at the more favorable 20% capital gains rate. Moreover, for investors using Japan’s NISA (Nippon Individual Savings Account), both capital gains and dividends from Metaplanet stock are entirely tax-exempt. This efficient tax treatment makes Metaplanet an attractive option for Japanese investors seeking exposure to Bitcoin.
If Bitcoin price rallies to fresh all-time highs, breaking past the key BTC resistance of $110K, the rally in Metaplanet might continue further.
