Crypto tax reform 2026


Seeing a lot of noise in different financial news outlets about how Japan is about to start treating crypto more favorably starting in 2026. Word is that they're going to give it the standard 20% capital gains treatment instead of counting profits as income and applying the marginal 55% rate in the highest bracket.

Anyone about to take advantage of this? Is this actually kicking in in January?
