Late last year, the Swiss authorities announced that citizens and Zug-based businesses would be able to pay up to 100,000 CHF of their taxes with Bitcoin or Ether. Several months after officials partnered with Bitcoin Suisse, both parties have rolled out the innovative initiative.
Bitcoin Suisse is the crypto broker in the partnership. The firm has agreed to convert all Bitcoin and Ether holdings into Swiss francs to hedge against volatile price actions.
To use any of the supported digital assets to pay their taxes, residents would have to first notify the authorities upon receiving their tax invoice. They can then proceed to make payments by scanning the provided QR code, after going through the instructions supplied through email.
While announcing the initiative on Twitter, Bitcoin Suisse described the milestone as a “step forward for crypto adoption.”
