๐Ÿ“ข Heads up, Nigerian KuCoin users! ๐Ÿ‡ณ๐Ÿ‡ฌ Starting July 8, KuCoin's implementing a 7.5% VAT on transaction fees. But don't stress, it's not on the transaction amount, just the fee. For example, a 1,000 USDT transaction would see a 1 USDT fee plus a 0.075 USDT tax. So, you'd net 998.925 USDT. ๐Ÿ’ธ

This move follows hot on the heels of Binance's tax evasion charges filed by the Nigerian government. Binance was accused of not deducting VATs from Nigerian traders, among other charges. ๐Ÿ›๏ธ

What's next for Nigerian crypto users? KuCoin and Binance have already paused peer-to-peer services for the Nigerian naira. Will other exchanges follow suit with trade taxes? ๐Ÿค” Let's chat below! #KuCoin #CryptoTax #Nigeria
