With regulation, it was stifled from more scrutiny from hacks and the downfall of MT GOX, making adoption in Japan more difficult. One aspect has been tax in Japan, from unrealized gains taxed up to 30%, & miscellaneous income up to 55%. The crypto industry in Japan has long criticized & asked for changes to these tax policies. On top of other countries offering tax incentives, it's been challenging. 💡 In light, there has been innovation in Japan. With projects such as Not A Hotel, CryptoBar P2P, and BONSAI NFT CLUB. These projects add real-world value by offering incentives to their holders from a free night stay once a year, annual passes, and Bonsai deliveries! 🥳 With all this said, Japan is revolutionizing its stand on digital assets with more #Web3 integrations and education. Astar is well-positioned, and we are very optimistic about the current outlook & adoption! Let's keep building! 💪 Full Article - https://hyperithm.notion.site/Japan-s-Web3-Trends-in-2022-a4d1138c84184e28ac1ae440636be330 Like and Retweet - https://twitter.com/AstarNetwork/status/1605911061671993344
