Bitcoin buyers will not face any capital beneficial properties tax, instant everlasting residency for cryptocurrency entrepreneurs — El Salvador President Nayib Bukele’s incentives for the crypto group has attracted consideration from buyers and entrepreneurs alike, following his current announcement to make Bitcoin a authorized tender within the nation. Retweeting cryptocurrency entrepreneur Justin Sun’s tweet, “Crypto buyers and entrepreneurs will begin to transfer to El Salvador!”, President Bukele listed out four perks and privileges, especially for the cryptocurrency community, for those who wish to move to El Salvador. The other reasons include the absence of property tax as well as “nice climate, world class browsing seashores, seashore entrance properties for sale.”
The tweet comes a pair days after President Bukele introduced that El Salvador will likely be making the cryptocurrency a authorized tender. This will make it the primary nation to be accepting Bitcoin as a legal national currency. At the time of writing, Bitcoin price in India stood at over Rs. 24.14 lakhs.
If President Bukele’s ambitions to make Bitcoin an official currency were to be successful, it would also ensure his promise of there being no capital gains tax on the cryptocurrency, since it would no longer be simply an asset but an official national currency of El Salvador. A move like this is anticipated to create major waves in the global economic framework.

El Salvador’s decision comes as a welcome relief to the cryptocurrency community, especially after China recently banned Chinese banks and financial institutions from offering any service concerning cryptocurrency transactions.
Closer home, the Reserve Bank of India recently clarified that the April 2018 circular is no longer valid following the Supreme Court order on March 4, 2020.
In the April circular, lenders regulated by the RBI were banned from “offering any service in relation to digital currencies together with these of switch or receipt of cash in accounts referring to the acquisition or sale of digital currencies.”
