Market movements after budget from @deepakshenoy

Conclusion - Probably nothing. Markets are unpredictable 🤷🏻‍♂️

New rules for foreign retirement accounts were expected last year.

Introduced in Budget 2021 but they probably forgot about it? 😂

Let's see if there's anything this year.

No tax on maturity

🏅 Buy in primary issue, sell in secondary market:
Capital gains tax applies

1/ Indian exchanges:

Think of crypto exchanges like WazirX, Zebpay and CoinDCX as a broker-cum-exchange. I like to say this is Zerodha + NSE.

They allow you to purchase cryptocurrency on the exchange as well as act as a store of your cryptocurrencies.
All your crypto currencies are stored on a Wallet with these exchanges. There are considered centralized exchanges.

These exchanges allow you to invest in all your major cryptocurrencies - Bitcoin, Ether, Dogecoin, ADA, Matic, etc

Most transactions are denominated in INR

I've been thinking about this for a while.

Is there a way we get around the fact that Bitcoin DOES NOT work in isolation? Bitcoin is (and probably always will be) valued in terms of another currency.

So you have an alternative to Gold - great! But is that all that Bitcoin can be?

Bitcoin does not seem like it can ever be used as a medium of exchange. For multiple reasons:

2/n
1. Governments are unlikely to allow this.
2. How do you value something in Bitcoin terms if the value keeps fluctuating? A currency needs to be stable(ish)
