Title: A perfect utilization of cryptocurrency technology Post by: pakhitheboss on October 26, 2021, 01:32:38 AM Bitcoin was created as an alternative payment system that would operate free of central control but otherwise be used just like traditional currencies. Shortly other cryptocurrencies followed with a much better and faster payment network. We generally read and hear how people are utilizing this feature for international payments. A lot of Indian expats now have started using cryptocurrencies to remit money to India. This is not only helping them with a cheap transaction fee but also their families are now getting access to the money immediately. Read this below article and do share your views.

Unless cash dealing, these conversions go through exchanges where kyc is mandatory.

When money is transferred through the usual channels, government earns tax revenue from both side of transaction. Also income tax is applicable to the recipient of that money. Now if that same person is using a crypto wallet to remit that money, government is not getting tax revenue. Moreover, if people are using p2p method to convert their cryptos, It becomes increasingly difficult for the government to track them as foreign repatriated income. But when it comes to savings for an individual working abroad, that makes complete sense!

And yet, there is a huge economy working within the country that works on cash - completely undocumented, and yet no one is worried about it. Even the local chatwala, samosa wala, chaiwala - earns Rs 2k a day to 5k a day (guess their monthly income? ) selling stuff on the road side - all cash transaction, no records - no taxes and everything is fine. And yet, someone uses crypto to transfer money to their families - and taxes becomes an issue.
