The Marshall Islands passed the Sovereign Currency Act in 2018 to create the SOV, a blockchain-based national digital currency. No income or capital gains tax.
Tunisia restricts cryptocurrency activities. The Central Bank of Tunisia has not authorized any crypto exchanges, and foreign exchange regulations effectively prohibit crypto transactions. Tunisia's strict capital controls make legal crypto trading very difficult. Despite restrictions, some Tunisians access crypto via P2P platforms and VPNs.
