Cryptocurrency is legal and regulated in Malaysia. The Securities Commission oversees digital asset exchanges (DAX) and initial exchange offerings under the Capital Markets and Services (Prescription of Securities) Order 2019. Only SC-approved exchanges can operate. Malaysia does not impose capital gains tax on crypto for individuals, though frequent trading may be classified as business income.

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.
