Dominican Republic vs Slovenia

Dominican Republic

Dominican Republic

Slovenia

Slovenia

Restricted
Legal

The Dominican Republic has no specific cryptocurrency legislation. The central bank (BCRD) issued statements in 2017 and 2021 warning that crypto is not legal tender and prohibiting regulated financial institutions from dealing in digital assets under Monetary Law No. 183-02. Individual use is not criminalized but operates in a restricted gray area.

Slovenia proposed a 25% tax on crypto capital gains effective January 2026, but the law was pulled from the December 2025 legislative session and has not been enacted. Currently, individual crypto trading gains remain untaxed. Slovenia has been crypto-friendly, with Ljubljana hosting Bitcoin City and a strong blockchain community. VASPs must register for AML compliance. MiCA applies from December 2024.
