Despite large hacker attacks, Japan plans to become the world "capital of the bitcoins" and take the leading place on kriptornke. To this end, it continues to attract investment, a number of experts said in an interview with The Daily Express. Unlike its neighbors - China and South Korea - the risks did not force Japan to abandon the plan to become the first country that widely uses crypto currency as a legal tender. "According to some estimates, the crypto-currency business will be taxed, including profits, which will be paid by both individual investors and corporations. And these tax revenues can bring the country about 1 trillion yen ($ 9.2 billion), "said economist of the Tokyo Credit Suisse division Takashi Shiono. The Japanese economy has experienced decades of stagnation, faced with a huge public debt and the problem of reducing the population and the tax base. So now Tokyo hopes to benefit from the crypto-currency market. The plan of Japan is to attract international investors the maximum freedom to use crypto currency (while the rest of the world is trying to limit it). "We are interested in controlling the crypto currency, and not in its prohibition," explains Takashi Shiono. It is estimated that Crypto-currencies can add about 0.3% to Japan's GDP growth. The total growth of the country's GDP this year could be about 20%.

The investor in crypto-currencies and the co-founder of the well-known analytical company Fundstrat believes that the market will fall to a minimum on the day after paying taxes in the US. A large analyst with Wall Street, crypto-currency investor and co-founder of the research company Fundstrat Tom Lee believes that the "massive outflow" of capital from the digital market money can accelerate on the eve of April 17, this is the last day of paying taxes in the US, reports CNBC. Tom Lee noted that American traders and investors owe the state $ 25 billion for operations with digital money. Exchanges will also have to pay taxes on time, so they can start selling actively crypto currency in the coming days, this will negatively affect the cost of digital money. "We believe that the pressure on the market creates a crypto exchange, which is required to pay income tax in the US jurisdiction. Net income of exchanges for 2017 is equal to or exceeds $ 1 billion. At the same time, their working capital is concentrated in bitcoin and etherium, and not in USD. Accordingly, in order to fulfill their tax obligations, they sell BTC / ETH, "the expert believes. The specialist added that "historical estimates indicate that the outflow of each dollar is reflected in the fall in the market capitalization of the Crypto-currency at $ 20-25." In the first three months of 2018, the total capitalization of the market decreased by 50%, for bitcoin and ether it was the most unfortunate period in history. "The risk of directed actions by regulators is still substantial. The mood remains awful. According to our estimate of the bitcoin poverty index, the situation remains disastrous. Ultimately, we are counting on the fact that bitcoin will find the bottom after April 17, the last day of tax payment, "said Tom Lee. Earlier, the expert made a forecast about the course of the first crypto currency. In his view, the price of BTC will reach $ 91,000 by March 2020. In January 2018, when the bitcoine price dropped to $ 9,000, the analyst said that the coin would rise in price to $ 25,000 by the end of the year.

Tom Lee Lindstrat predicted a "massive outflow" of crypto-currency to Fiat on the eve of a tax day in the US, CNBC reported on April 5.

      In the report, Lee notes that US investors have to pay $ 25 billion to pay capital gains tax, and crypto-exchange exchanges must pay income tax, and investors and exchanges will sell their crypto currency for paying taxes:

     "We believe that the crypto-exchange exchanges that are subject to income tax in the US jurisdiction will put pressure on the sale. Many exchanges have received net profit of more than $ 1 billion last year and have retained working capital in Bitcoins and Ethers, and not US dollars, therefore, to fulfill these tax obligations, they will sell their crypto currency. "
       According to Lee, "according to historical estimates, every $ 1 outflow is $ 20-25 in the market of crypto-currency."

      Crypto-currency markets showed a 50% loss in the first quarter of 2018, noting the worst results for BTC and ETH in the history of coins. Nevertheless, anyone who was a member of the crypto-currency market in December 2017 and watched the growth of the BTC price to $ 20,000, will have to pay a capital gains tax for its income.

      The Bitcomin bad luck index (BMI) by Thomas Lee, developed in mid-March to show how "unfortunate" BTC holders are based on current prices, demonstrates that holders of crypto-currencies are currently experiencing "misfortune": "

"The risk from regulators is still significant. And the mood remains terrible, which is measured by our index, which still shows unhappiness. "
      Lee came to the conclusion that "ultimately, we expect Bitcoin to take a firm position after April 17, the tax day."

      Lee recently predicted that Bitcoin would reach $ 91,000 by March 2020, based on the results of the BTC after past failures. In January of this year, when the BTC price was about $ 9,000, Lee told CNBC that BTC would reach $ 25,000 by the end of 2018, and not by 2022, as he had previously predicted.
