A comprehensive understanding of the burgeoning crypto space, demystifying ambiguity around the ‘transfer’ of digital assets and their classification needs to come first before imposing taxation. Whereas the growth of the industry has attracted the attention of the government, the Blockchain Association of Kenya calls for education, engagement, and a well-informed approach before imposing a 3% tax on crypto transfers.
The Kenyan government cannot have its cake and eat it. The Central Bank of Kenya has previously cautioned citizens against transacting in Bitcoin and other digital assets as they are not regulated nor legal tender in Kenya. However, the Central Bank mulls the possibility of introducing a Central Bank Digital Currency (CBDC) after inviting views from citizens. A CBDC is centralized whereas digital currencies are decentralized and not regulated by any central bank.
