Ministry of Economy and Finance: Report on 'Taxing Perpetual Futures on Foreign Exchange Stock Products' Is Not True
MOEF released an official press explanation on November 3 denying the report.
The denied report, published November 2, claimed MOEF planned to classify US-stock-linked perpetual futures traded on overseas crypto exchanges as foreign stock derivatives subject to capital gains tax.
MOEF explicitly stated that perpetual futures and similar products traded on overseas digital asset exchanges are not being taxed as derivatives.
