Some other countries are now embracing cryptocurrency and for those that gave not fully approved of it, their citizens have started investing in crypto and are gradually waiting for it to be adopted by their country as well.
I think the crypto market has a lot of business benefits so I believe that one day the cryptocurrency market will be legalized around the world. We live in the era of Blockchain technology and can use this technology in so many different fields. In fact, some big countries like Japan or Singapore are starting to develop this technology in a positive way and surely people can apply it in everyday life.

Of course, some countries don't like the appearance of this market because there are so many money related issues. Anyway hopefully one day my country can legalize this market.

It's interesting because Malta has been historically known for their positive attitude towards bitcoin and crypto business regulations, but yet, Bittrex international seems to be seeking their way out of Malta for one reason or another.

Either way though, these are the countries that stand the most to gain in the long term future.

Crypto, whether centralized or decentralized, will generate significant government revenue to anyone who is bothered to create an environment that encourages financial innovation.

Well they're not only countries, but there are also states in the United States which do not charge income tax, maybe they would be good? I don't know.
many regulation are published about cryptocurrency, especially for tax in USA, that's why make people and company don't want running business about crypto and blockhai in this country

Japan became one of the first countries that is friendly to cryptocurrency. Many restaurants or merchants are allowed to accept crypto as payment while Malta is already known as a country that is regulated friendly so many exchangers open their headquarters there.

The countries that have come out with no bias or pretentious mind, to affirm their acceptance and trust in cryptocurrency are already doing well with it. In fact, a lot of their citizens are happy about it, because it is like a freedom that is extended in love. With time, the number of countries in the world, will be favored and highly blessed.

Thanks to sharing nice Info no doubt Malta is on top and as per my knowledge the Binance exchange is also now handled from malta and many more. Russia and the rest of Europe are also a good future for crypto trading.
Crypto trading is welcomed by almost all of those country that are considered as developed as they understand the true power and worth of technology. Bitcoin is the future of money. Majority is still unaware of it and only a small portion of world population is investing in digital currencies. These are the people who will become rich in future without doing any hard work. Such supporting countries are also important for prosperity of new technologies.
that's why because people and goverment know about the technology of blockchain where they can't controll it, so in few country cryptocurrency is illegal.
and other factor goverment scared about money laundry using blockchain.

There is nothing more appealing to a crypto enthusiast than an environment suitable for holding or trading cryptocurrencies, In my opinion here are the 5 most crypto-friendly countries.

Malta
Topping the list is Malta. The country has become a haven for cryptocurrency companies and businesses due to its tax-friendly policy, even for foreigners. This country has a prime minister who fully supports all cryptocurrencies.

Bermuda
Bermuda is a small island with a population of about 65,000 people in the Caribbean. This country has attracted companies with a free tax policy. This also applies to cryptocurrencies as the country aims to become a haven for the cryptocurrency industry

Japan
Japan is a leading country in the cryptocurrency space. Japan is the first country in the world to accept Bitcoin as legal. The country was also the first to adopt extensive regulations for more than their cryptocurrency exchanges.

Germany
Cryptocurrencies are considered to be a separate unit of money and an accepted means of payment in the country by the German National Tourism Board 2018. Germany has a cryptocurrency-friendly financial system.

Singapore
Cryptocurrencies will be considered commodities, not currencies in Singapore. Any company dealing with cryptocurrencies is required to pay GST (Goods and Services Tax)

In your opinion, which countries are crypto-friendly? Please list
I agree with you that these five countries are five cryptocurrency-friendly countries.
Since the country is in Malta, they have a fully supported prime minister all of the electronic money, Bermuda, which has free tax policies, Japan is the first country in the world to accept bitcoin as legal  Wink Wink So I think 3 countries Malta, Bermuda, and Japan are 3 crypto-friendly countries, in my opinion

Do not forget about how friendly Switzerland is treating cryptocurrency there, in Switzerland cryptocurrency can take a role as money and allowed to trade it but of course it is not regarded as legal tender. Right now they are doing research regarding Blockchain and aiming to be Blockchain and fintech nation.
running a company based Blockchain in Switzerland is as good as running it in Malta because you will get support from the local people.

I agree, most crypto related companies are transferring their HQ in Switzerland because they welcome such innovation.

I dont know why its not on the list of OP.

Netherlands - there are also start-ups in this country that are quietly building their infrastructures or network.
It is flawed because I have ignored Switzerland, they are also cryptocurrency friendly country, they have a territory called Zug, it is called "Crypto valley", where many good policies with cryptocurrencies are applied.

I haven't seen Portugal in your list. As far as I know they have zero tax on cryptocurrencies? Please correct me if I'm wrong.

Indeed all these countries are pioneering the cryptocurrency movement and they will surely gain some economic traction thanks to this, but in order for a foreigner to profit from this he either has to move to obe of the countries listed or create a business there. In either cases there are some complex procedures to follow that might not be suitable for everyone.
As far as I understand, Portugal only exempted taxes for payments by cryptocurrencies, not a tax incentive for companies about blockchain and cryptocurrencies. Moreover, these policies have just been applied, so Portugal may not be known as a crypto-friendly country.

Nice list, have a merit on me Wink

I would add Canada  to my personal list
-Excellent electricity rates, some of the best in the world
-Pro crypto government (tho the banks are still old fools)
-Awesome BTC exchange rate
Canada I heard have legal using bitcoin as transaction payment and become my destination if I have much money later, with how excellent electricity rates I think I want live there for several years later, I want to go there about one year later.

If Germany can make the list as a country with one of the best economy in the world then the third world countries need more help. Germany and other countries on the list have a good platform for small to medium businesses, with crpyptocurrency they have helped with cryptobacked up loan for these businesses. Most cryptocoins transaction record are difficult to falsify and this had helped  in controlling corruption in their community.

Singapore
Cryptocurrencies will be considered commodities, not currencies in Singapore. Any company dealing with cryptocurrencies is required to pay GST (Goods and Services Tax)

In your opinion, which countries are crypto friendly? Please list
This one is a little weird lol. So if someone pays using crypto currencies, they will also have to pay with fiat to cover the Goods and Service Tax? Or will the seller cover that. So since it is considered as a commodity, then I guess those who hold it don't have to pay any kinds of tax or anything for their gains.
Anyways, that was a great list. Hope we have more countries that are actually crypto friendly. The more countries we have, the more crypto currencies will develop.

I chose Japan as the best country for cryptocurrencies.  because of its location in Asia, it is an example of how to develop the cryptocurrency industry that should be emulated by other countries, especially Asia.  because not many countries in Asia allow open circulation for cryptocurrency. and Japan being an example and prove that crypto is not a threat.
