We all know that the development of a certain country comes from the taxes of its citizens, and we all know people who engage bitcoin don't pay taxes to the government, what will happen to a country where 80% of its citizens engage in cryptocurrency?
There is a big possibility that this things might happen In the future because bitcoin is growing faster and very known today.
While bitcoin users don't submit tax forms to the government, we are still paying taxes. The exchange that you are using in order to cash out your bitcoins into fiat money, they are paying tax. Don't you think they do? In every cash out that you do, you are already paying them tax. The only thing is that you don't realize it because the exchange rate has already been adjusted so that the tax is already included in your transaction.
Another thing, if everyone's using bitcoin and all are making good amount of money from their Internet jobs, I think that the economy of that country will grow even more. More money means more consumption for you. That's what humans do, we consume. We buy everything. Every time you buy something, you're already contributing to the country because you're paying tax.
My guess is the governments, in order to protect themselves from tax evasion by cryptocurrency, will increase value added taxes.
And the banks, which are essential for a government to control the economy, will just choose another way to compensate the money transfer commissions.
All except money transfer will stay in a different, yet very similar fashion.
Definitely agree to this. The government is well aware that they can't stop the people from using bitcoin since there will always be an Internet connection to the country. Prohibiting the use of Internet to the whole country is very absurd to do so they have to have a different solution. People earning money from their bitcoin earnings aren't paying income tax. This thread asks what if 80% of the population is using bitcoin, which is a majority of the people. That means it will be a good decision to increase the value added tax (tax you pay when buying something like groceries etc) since everyone's affected by it since everyone buys something.
