Jan Wai-man stated that the tax and fines recovered by the Hong Kong government from 2018 to 2025 have exceeded 100 million Hong Kong dollars, and it is expected that an additional approximately 8,000 financial institutions will be required to register compulsorily in the future.

According to the Korea Herald, the South Korean government is improving the debt adjustment program "New Start Fund" for small business owners and individual entrepreneurs, incorporating virtual assets into the review process.Under the revised system, the debt relief rate will be adjusted based on the applicant's repayment ability, and the assessment of repayment ability now considers their holdings of cryptocurrency assets. Previously, the fund mainly verified the debtor's income and assets through financial statements submitted by the applicant and data available from the public administrative information network, which made it difficult to identify such investment assets.To address this issue, since January of this year, the fund has utilized virtual asset balance certificates in property assessments after negotiations with the five major Korean won market cryptocurrency exchanges. Applicants recognized as members of the aforementioned exchanges are now required to submit these certificates directly.

According to CoinDesk, the dividend-paying preferred stock STRC issued by Bitcoin treasury company Strategy recently fell below its par value of $100, sparking discussions in the market about its capital structure and solvency. Key timeline events are as follows:May 14: STRC closed at $100 before the ex-dividend date, while the price of Bitcoin remained above $80,000, but market pressure was already evident. During the same period, Strive Asset Management announced that its competing product SATA would adopt a daily dividend mechanism, increasing its yield to 13%, further intensifying competitive pressure on STRC.May 15: Strategy announced a buyback of $1.5 billion of 2029 convertible bonds at approximately an 8% discount. The market then noted that the company's dollar cash reserves used for dividends and debt support were utilized for this transaction.May 26: Strategy confirmed that cash reserves participated in the bond buyback, reducing the fund size to approximately $871 million, which only covers about 6 months of STRC dividend payments, whereas the company's previous target was to maintain coverage for about 24 months.June 1: Strategy sold Bitcoin for the first time since 2022, selling 32 BTC to demonstrate its ability to support dividend payments through asset sales. Following the announcement, MSTR's stock price fell by 5.9%.June 5: Bitcoin fell below $60,000, and STRC dropped to around $90.June 8: Strategy shareholders approved changing STRC to pay dividends twice a month, while the company disclosed that dollar reserves had risen to $1 billion.June 15: Strategy repurchased 1,587 BTC, increasing dollar reserves to $1.1 billion.June 18: STRC fell below $83 during intraday trading, about 17% lower than the target price, marking a new low since its listing in July 2025, ultimately closing at $88.59.Analysis suggests that the core challenge facing STRC lies in its high-yield preferred stock structure being highly correlated with the Bitcoin cycle. In a Bitcoin bear market environment, investors are not only reassessing BTC itself but also beginning to reevaluate the financial products and capital systems built around Bitcoin.

As India's tax enforcement intensifies, cryptocurrency investors face stricter reporting and compliance requirements in the 2026 tax season, with incorrect declarations potentially triggering fines and audits. Reports indicate that under current rules, cryptocurrency gains are still subject to a 30% uniform capital gains tax, and a 1% Tax Deducted at Source (TDS) is levied on transactions exceeding a certain amount, while losses cannot be offset across assets. The new Income Tax Act (2025) came into effect on April 1, 2026, but the core tax framework remains largely unchanged.In terms of reporting, investors must fill out a dedicated Schedule VDA section in the ITR-2 or ITR-3 forms and are required to record each transaction individually, including all operations such as trading, exchanging, transferring, and clearing, rather than just summarizing gains. The report emphasizes that regulatory focus has clearly escalated. The Indian tax authorities will directly obtain user-level transaction data through trading platforms, custodians, and wallet service providers, and will automatically cross-check this with reported information; discrepancies will trigger system flags and audits.Data shows that the Indian tax authorities have issued over 44,000 notices and discovered approximately 88.8 billion rupees (about 930 million USD) in unreported virtual asset income. Meanwhile, the tax department is enhancing its tracking capabilities by combining on-chain analysis tools with international data-sharing mechanisms. Additionally, starting in 2027, India will align with the OECD cryptocurrency reporting framework to achieve automatic exchange of cross-border transaction data, and overseas exchange holdings will gradually come under regulatory scrutiny.Analysis points out that common errors include misuse of reporting forms, omission of airdrop and staking income, and failure to correctly match 1% TDS records, among others. The report emphasizes that cryptocurrency tax compliance is shifting from "post-reporting" to "real-time traceability," and investors need to strengthen year-round record management.
