Bukele then declared in a tweet that there will be no capital gains taxes on Bitcoin gains and that all “crypto entrepreneurs” will be awarded a permanent residency.
The Central American backing has grown even more now that a Panamanian official has added his two cents. He proposes appropriate legislation to make Bitcoin legal in the country.
South America also joined the party. Carlitos Rejala, a member of Paraguay’s National Congress, recently said that Bitcoin will go “to the moon,” and that the country would need to work “hand-in-hand with the next generation” to keep up.
