Blockchain technology is rapidly gaining momentum
Cryptocurrencies are dominating the media. This one has collapsed, that one is on the rise, and a new one is around the corner.

In April, the South African Revenue Service (SARS) announced that it will be treating cryptocurrencies using normal income tax rules. Affected taxpayers will, therefore, be expected to declare cryptocurrency gains or losses as part of their taxable income in the tax year in which they are accrued.
