According to Wu, as reported by Nikkei News, the Japanese government and the ruling party are promoting a proposal to change the taxation of income from crypto asset transactions to a flat rate of 20%, unifying the tax system with financial products such as stocks and investment trusts. The plan aims to collect "national tax 15% + local tax 5%" to reduce the tax burden and invigorate the domestic crypto market. This measure is planned to be included in the 2026 tax reform outline and finalized by the end of the year.
