Japan's tax agency launches KSK2 system with AI analysis of crypto trades

  • —KSK2 went live on Sept. 24, replacing the KSK system in use for about 25 years
  • —Individual and corporate data are unified via My Number and corporate IDs
  • —AI cross-checks exchange reports, bank records and CRS data on crypto trades
  • —The agency also monitors social media posts about crypto profits
Why it matters: Japanese crypto investors face tighter scrutiny of tax filings, raising the risk of back taxes and penalties.
