Is this for both personal and business accounts?

I don't think that's an issue, also if it's a second hand device you can restore it with another seed phrase.

Data leakage, as it happened with Ledger.

For a crypto trader Cyprus is a good option as a crypto-to-crypto swap is not a tax event; if a trader has to pay 9% tax for each profitable swap than Dubai is not a great option.

DEX - decentralized exchange like Uniswap.

To be, or not to be self-employed?

It's not an ETF but if they use PostFinance it should be doable for them https://www.postfinance.ch/en/about-us/media/newsroom/postfinance-launching-crypto-service.html

Thank you for the list of criteria! It seems that an EMI is an interface to banks and crypto exchanges. I went through the help pages of the crypto-friendly EMIs Zen.com and Payset and read sentences like "placing client funds in a ring-fenced account with an authorised credit institution"; in...

There are many EMIs... What criteria should be followed when choosing an EMI over another?

I get your point, but with crypto it's actually like keeping your money under the mattress and accountants, bankers etc. know it... Give a look to the link @jafo provided in his last post

I don't mean accountants are bad guys, but they might have weak IT security policies and no knowledge at all of crypto and blockchain: that might be a problem, because the client manages the crypto himself. No, nobody is going to break into your house in the middle of the night if, for example...

Sleep with one eye opened if you are sure that someone knows your millionaire self hosted wallet's address and where you live (maybe the accountant is a good guy, but what about the random IT consultants who maintain his databases containing your info? Just to make an example)...

There's nothing paranoid in checking points of failure... a crypto holder is actually sleeping with his money under the mattress.

Yes, but it doesn't mean they know your personal info; you might also have asked a friend to buy the device. It's long time I don't use ledger live, using the device through metamask. Trezor stores your info in anonymized form after 3 months from the purchase and delete it when the warranty expires.

Someone has already advised not to use your name and address when buying Ledger/Trezor... Who is going to guarantee you that there won't be data leaks from crypto friendly banks/EMIs and nobody will know your wallet's address and see the balance in it? Or that maybe your accountant "sells" your...

I don't remember but It's already been mentioned in some other thread. It doesn't seem so Crypto Tax Guide Germany 2024 [Kryptowährung Steuer 2023] | Koinly

Do they keep your crypto wallet address private or is there the risk to find your name, wallet balance and transactions publicly available on the internet through some deanonymizing tool like Arkham Intelligence?

no, just the realized gains (crypto to fiat). Wouldn't Germany be a better choice as it's stated clearly in the legislation that if you sell your crypto after holding them for one year you don't have to pay tax?

Monaco has no personal income tax and OP has already the money to request a residency permit in the Principality of Monaco (provided his criminal record is clean). From what OP writes it seems he'll be trading his crypto, and now it's very likely a business activity in the UAE and has to pay...

Any update on this? On paper Hungary looks good for crypto (trade/invest, NFT, mining, staking): 15% PIT only when exchanging crypto to FIAT currency or crypto to good/service. Transparency International ranks Hungary the most corrupted country in the EU.
