Referring to the capital gains tax proposal that will see top earners pay as much as 43.4%<\/a>, as well as other political shenanigans<\/span><\/span>, IOG CEO Charles Hoskinson<\/a> said:<\/p>\n “a lot of depressing sh*t coming down the pipe there that really p*sses me off. It’s just an endless river that one. Why do we pay taxes when we can print trillions of dollars?”<\/p><\/blockquote>\n The tax hike news coincided with a heavy market correction, with almost all crypto tokens hit with double-digit losses. Should the proposal pass, Hoskinson said he would see a two-fold increase in his tax liability. But how does he plan to deal with the issue?<\/p>\n President Biden<\/a> is thinking about doubling the capital gains tax for wealthy individuals to pay for social spending. Those at the top rate, earning $1 million or more, could be hit with a federal tax rate as high as 43.4%.<\/p>\n Both traditional and crypto markets slumped on the news. $316 billion was wiped from the total crypto market cap<\/a>, equating to a 15% loss.<\/p>\n <\/p>\n Although the proposal requires senate approval before passing, Hoskinson<\/a> holds little hope that the situation can be averted. He said this is because of the lack of a majority.<\/p>\n “No, it will pass. That was the consequence of Georgia, so depressing about that. Divided government is government of compromise, not a government on mono-culture, and unfortunately because there is a political monopoly, all these things are going to pass through.”<\/p><\/blockquote>\n In recent times, the practice of obtaining dual citizenship, and even renouncing U.S. citizenship altogether, has become a popular way to decrease one’s tax burden.<\/p>\nCrypto Markets Dump as Tax Hike Proposal Announced<\/h2>\n
