And so, in Ukraine, despite the ongoing war, the Verkhovna Rada of Ukraine is considering a bill on the legalization of the currency market🤔🤔 in 2025. I report that according to articles on the internet, it is stated that on August 19, the Verkhovna Rada plans to start consideration of bill No. 10225-d in the first reading, which provides for the legalization of the virtual assets market. What do you say?
The document has already been approved by the relevant committee and recommended for adoption as the base document, reports Economic Truth. By October of this year, it is planned to define the distribution of powers among regulators in accordance with the European directive. This was reported by the head of the parliamentary committee on finance, tax, and customs policy Daniil Getmantsev.
The adoption of this law is expected to systematize and regulate the turnover of crypto assets in Ukraine, creating clear rules for market participants, reports Economic Truth🤗🤗🤗
The division of crypto assets into three categories is provided: asset-backed tokens, electronic money tokens (stablecoins), and other virtual assets, the list of which will be determined by the regulator. Ownership will be confirmed by cryptographic keys, and possession will be considered legal by default, there you have it, the state will poke its nose everywhere, which is sad...
Taxation is regulated in a separate section. A special regime for income from cryptocurrency operations is provided, with taxation only on profits, as well as a number of tax benefits. For assets acquired before the law comes into force, a preferential personal income tax rate of 5% will be established in 2026.
Statistics say that 7-10% of the population has cryptocurrency savings, and this figure is constantly growing. After all, even an ordinary citizen is already aware of the numerical advantages of having virtual funds in a crypto wallet. Firstly, it is very reliable, and secondly, cryptocurrencies have the same financial power as regular money. The most popular among Ukrainians are bitcoins, as the bitcoin rate is currently the highest among all types of cryptocurrencies. There are several tens of thousands of types of cryptos, but only 15-20 of them are in the highest demand.
