Kim Min-seok: crypto tax decision to be finalized by year-end

—Crypto tax is scheduled to take effect on January 1, 2026
—Planned rate is 22% on gains above 2.5 million won a year
—Kim met the deputy prime minister and proposed a final joint review
—Support for another delay is growing within the Democratic Party

Why it matters: A delay or repeal would ease pressure on Korean investors and shape how the country regulates digital assets.
