Paul Quickenden: Swyftx New Zealand Country Manager on ACT's plan for tax-free profits on crypto

Crypto investors are hoping a new policy will stop punishing them in the long term.

ACT's campaigning on modernising regulations, including allowing tax-free profits on crypto held for more than a year, and a 12 month brightline test.

He says there's a lot of work for a very small amount of tax.
