Ukraine Lost Out on $200 Million in Taxes From Digital Asset Exchanges

烏克蘭因數位資產交易所損失了 2 億美元的稅收

Ukraine could have collected over $200 million in taxes from digital asset exchanges over the past four years, according to a new report.

根據一份新報告，烏克蘭在過去四年中可能從數位資產交易所徵收了超過 2 億美元的稅。

The report, by blockchain forensic services provider Global Ledger, analyzed 64 centralized global exchanges and found that 2.5% of global traffic to these exchanges is from Ukrainian investors.

區塊鏈取證服務供應商 Global Ledger 的這份報告分析了 64 個全球中心化交易所，發現這些交易所的全球流量的 2.5% 來自烏克蘭投資者。

This traffic generated over $1.12 billion in profits for the exchanges from their Ukrainian operations, which translates to $202 million in taxes that should have been paid in that period, the study showed.

研究顯示，這些流量為交易所在烏克蘭的業務帶來了超過 11.2 億美元的利潤，這意味著該時期本應繳納的稅款為 2.02 億美元。

Breaking it down further reveals that $57 million was generated in 2021, $43 million in 2022, $40 million in 2023 and $62 million this year.

進一步細分顯示，2021 年產生 5,700 萬美元，2022 年產生 4,300 萬美元，2023 年產生 4,000 萬美元，今年產生 6,200 萬美元。

Interestingly, the report also estimates that Ukrainian traders could have earned between $630 million and $3.16 billion in profits from digital asset trading this year alone. Applying a 5% tax rate, the country could have earned up to $158 million.

有趣的是，該報告還估計，光是今年烏克蘭交易員就可以從數位資產交易中賺取 6.3 億至 31.6 億美元的利潤。如果採用 5% 的稅率，該國的收入可能高達 1.58 億美元。

Ukraine is not the only country grappling with the challenge of taxing digital assets. With the sector now valued at $3.75 trillion, nearly every government is struggling to come up with a way to tax gains from the industry.

烏克蘭並不是唯一一個面臨數位資產課稅挑戰的國家。該行業目前價值 3.75 兆美元，幾乎每個政府都在努力尋找對該行業收益徵稅的方法。

Some, like Russia , have aligned digital asset taxation with stocks, making it easier to calculate and report taxes. Others, like South Korea , have opted to avoid dealing with the tough questions, recently postponing new taxation measures by another two years.

俄羅斯等一些國家已將數位資產稅與股票稅掛鉤，從而更容易計算和報告稅收。韓國等其他國家則選擇避免處理棘手問題，最近又將新的稅收措施延後了兩年。

In other countries, like India and Kenya , digital asset traders have gone to court to protest proposed taxation frameworks. In India, the Income Tax Appellate Tribunal stepped in this week, ruling that digital assets are capital assets and that profits should be subjected to capital gains, not as income from other sources.

在印度和肯亞等其他國家，數位資產交易者已訴諸法庭抗議擬議的稅收框架。在印度，所得稅上訴法庭本週介入，裁定數位資產屬於資本資產，利潤應歸入資本利得，而不是作為其他來源的收入。

Moving on from taxes, the Global Ledger report also found that Ukrainian miners contributed roughly 1% of the global hashrate and generated $113 million over the past four years.

除了稅收之外，全球帳本報告還發現，烏克蘭礦商貢獻了全球算力的約 1%，在過去四年中創造了 1.13 億美元的收入。

Furthermore, Ukrainians had downloaded 1.7 million non-custodial digital asset wallets by May this year.

此外，截至今年 5 月，烏克蘭人已下載了 170 萬個非託管數位資產錢包。

While Ukraine is yet to implement a comprehensive taxation framework, it is seeking to legalize digital assets early next year. A parliamentary working group is set to table a draft bill before legislators, with input from the central bank and the International Monetary Fund (IMF).

儘管烏克蘭尚未實施全面的稅收框架，但它正在尋求明年初將數位資產合法化。議會工作小組將在央行和國際貨幣基金組織（IMF）的意見下，向立法者提交法案草案。
