India legalized crypto taxation in the 2022 Union Budget, imposing a flat 30% tax on all crypto gains with no deductions for losses. A 1% TDS (Tax Deducted at Source) on crypto transactions above thresholds also applies. The Supreme Court struck down the RBI's 2018 banking ban in 2020, and India is now developing a broader regulatory framework.

Cryptocurrency is legal and regulated in Poland. Crypto capital gains are taxed at a flat 19% rate. The KNF (Polish Financial Supervision Authority) oversees crypto-related financial services, and VASPs must register for AML compliance. Poland has a growing crypto community and several domestic exchanges. MiCA applies from December 2024.
