About this episode
The Netherlands just passed a 36% unrealized gains tax on crypto, stocks, and bonds -- and it takes effect in 2028. That means if your Bitcoin goes up in value, you owe taxes even if you never sold. In this video, we break down exactly how the new "Actual Return in Box 3 Act" works, why it creates a dangerous liquidity death spiral for investors, and why this could be the beginning of a global trend as cash-strapped governments look for new revenue sources.We also look at the historical failures of wealth taxes in the UK, Sweden, and France, the rise of crypto-friendly jurisdictions like the UAE and Portugal, and what sophisticated investors are doing right now to protect their portfolios. If you're a long-term HODLer, this is one policy shift you cannot afford to ignore.Timestamps, links to your Telegram, and CTAs to the related videos mentioned at the end of the script would round this out nicely.
