Korea weighs fourth delay of crypto tax

Korea's tax on cryptocurrency gains, scheduled to take effect in January, could face a fourth postponement as the government turns cautious amid mounting calls for a delay from investors, the industry and lawmakers, the Korea Times reports. The presidential office's stance favoring a delay signals a fourth deferral is likely, according to Hankyung.
