Every country and state is attempting to introduce cryptocurrencies into the mainstream. Recently Florida declared that it is making plans to accept digital currencies for payments of taxes. Following its footsteps, a candidate from the state of Idaho, Dave Reilly, has announced that he will “abolish capital gains taxes, property taxes, and income taxes for Idahoans who use Bitcoin.”
Earlier in January, Jumaane Williams, another Gubernatorial candidate, said he was making plans to stop Cryptocurrency mining. He explained that he was not against the process but wanted companies to do it in a “more climate-friendly way” so that they could preserve a significant amount of electricity.Â

I will abolish capital gains taxes, property taxes, and income taxes for Idahoans who use Bitcoin,” says the candidate on his campaign website.Â
