As digital assets such as cryptocurrencies operate on decentralized and borderless networks, traditional tax systems struggle to effectively capture, monitor, and regulate taxable transactions. This study examines the legal frameworks governing cryptocurrency taxation within the context of public administration, with a focus on emerging and developing economies. The research adopts a qualitative approach, analyzing existing tax laws, regulatory guidelines, and policy responses across selected jurisdictions. It explores key issues such as the classification of cryptocurrencies for tax purposes, reporting obligations, compliance challenges, and enforcement mechanisms. The study finds that inconsistencies in legal definitions and the absence of comprehensive regulatory frameworks hinder effective taxation, leading to revenue losses and increased opportunities for tax evasion. Furthermore, the study highlights the administrative difficulties faced by tax authorities, including limited technical capacity, lack of transaction transparency, and the complexity of tracking cross-border cryptocurrency activities. Despite these challenges, some countries have begun to implement progressive legal frameworks that incorporate digital asset taxation into existing tax systems. The study concludes that effective cryptocurrency taxation requires clear legal definitions, robust regulatory frameworks, enhanced technological capacity, and international cooperation. It recommends that governments adopt adaptive tax policies, strengthen institutional capabilities, and leverage blockchain analytics tools to improve compliance and enforcement. Ultimately, a well-designed legal framework will enable public administrations to harness the benefits of cryptocurrency while ensuring sustainable revenue generation and regulatory oversight....Preview Download Preview +Other Public Administration project topics and materials you might be interested in»Impact of industrial conflict on the performance of workers in the government parastatal (a case study of Nigeria National Petroleum Corporation (NNPC)»Human resources as a catalyst for economic growth and development in Nigeria (a case study of Abuja municipal area council) »The influence of effective personnel management practice in organization performance»Local government financial autonomy and grass root development in Nigeria (a case study of Afikpo north local government area)»Effects of delayed payment of lecturers salaries and wages on students performance»Manpower training and development as a tool for effective performance in public sector in Nigeria»The impact of poor revenue generation on the development of Local Government Areas»Enhancing political stability in Nigeria through good governance ( a case study of Abia state)»Fuel subsidy removal and the Nigerian economy (a case study of Abakiliki local government area, Ebonyi state) »Niger-Delta crisis and its impact on socio-economic development in Nigeria»Accountability and corruption in local government in Nigeria (Case study of Bonny local government area of Rivers state)»Political instability a major hindrance to effective policy implementation and good governance (a case study of Nigeria 1983 -1999)»Bureaucracy and efficiency (a case study of Enugu state civil service)»Impact of collective bargaining techniques on industrial relations practice (a case study of two selected firms from NUPENG and NUBIFE)»The level of implementation of the pension act in federal polytechnic: (a study of Akanu Ibiam federal polytechnic, Unwana Afikpo Ebonyi state)
