Hi, I’ve been in Japan for 2 years (non-citizen), I bought some bitcoin a while back in Japan in JPY through coincheck, and moved the BTC to my US coinbase account. I also have a brokerage account in the US and am thinking of offsetting the brokerage loss with crypto gains, but I am worried I’d get taxed in Japan as well if I sold my bitcoin in USD while I’m still residing in Japan.
I read that I wouldn’t have to report the crypto gains if not remitted in Japan – is this true, or would the gains be considered taxable since it was bought in Japan?
