Israel confirmed Bitcoin tax rate
On Monday, the Israeli government will assess Bitcoin and crypt money as a property to get tax. So Bitcoin confirmed that he would get the tax.
The declaration confirms the past signs that the Tax Authority will see the crypto currencies as "a property, not a currency," and is therefore subject to this taxation. The attitude of the institution was first elaborated in a draft generalized in January of this year.

The circular said that earnings from cryptographic currencies would be subject to capital gains tax at rates ranging from twenty to twenty five percent. In connection with operations, crypto-currency traders or crypto-money mining companies must pay an additional 17 per cent value added tax (VAT).
The Israeli government has begun work on taxation of crypto banks in 2013. As the crypto money became more important and became popular, Bitcoin tax was on the agenda. This new system will prevent the exclusion of large segments of investors from potential VAT charges.
These announcements will continue to affect the sector
As today's announcement is largely anticipated (given the draft report from the tax authority), the authorities are still working on initiatives that can continue to have a major impact on the sector.
The agency's Monday announcement follows another draft text that was published late January and outlines possible ways the government could levy taxes on ICOs. Possible steps include adjusting the minimum token sales revenue threshold that a taxon will trigger.
Other countries seem likely to start receiving Bitcoin tax on crypto money, taxing Bitcoin and other crypto money could negatively affect the sector. However, it should not be forgotten that crypto money is coming, and it is the states that own blockchain technology. We had heard positive news from the states of New York and Arizona in America the past few days. The Chinese government also banned crypto money mining, and the miners then migrated to Canada. Turkey's stance on this issue will be demonstrating how an unknown for the moment.
