Episode Details

SARS just released draft guidance treating crypto like any other asset — not currency — meaning trading, swapping, or spending could trigger taxes based on your behavior and intent. With over 5 million South Africans holding crypto, this move clarifies existing tax laws, focusing on whether you’re a trader or long-term investor. Your actions, motivations, and even how you hold crypto matter. It also hints crypto could be subject to donations tax at 20-25% depending on value. Still a draft — public feedback closes August 31 — so while it’s a major step toward clarity, nothing’s final yet.
