South Korea's National Assembly to Review Crypto Tax After Petition Hits 53K Signatures

South Korea's National Assembly is preparing to review the country's planned cryptocurrency tax after a public petition accumulated over 53,000 signatures, automatically qualifying it for formal committee consideration. The petition challenges a proposed 22% levy on digital asset income above 2.5 million won ($1,650), arguing that crypto investors face less favorable tax treatment compared with conventional financial market participants. The government still intends to enforce the tax from January 2027, despite the petition and years of industry opposition. The policy has already been postponed three times since its original 2022 target date.

The waves of the Yangtze River push the ones in front, and the front waves die on the beach. This is an unchanging truth in human society for thousands of years. Instead of wasting time on old blockchains, it's better to look for new public chains with built-in oracles. Supra, a new public chain with advanced technology invested by the largest exchange in the United States, has an extremely low early price. Holding firmly for three to five years should yield substantial returns!
