Aussie federal budget reaffirms BTC won’t be treated as foreign currency

The first federal budget under the Anthony Albanese led-government has outlined that (BTC) will continue to be treated as a digital asset, and not taxed like a foreign currency.

This clarification comes in response to El Salvador’s adoption of BTC as legal tender in September last year, with the Australian government essentially ruling out a shift in classification despite it being used as a currency in El Salvador and the Central African Republic.
