I think it is probably just GB but I have not looked into other countries' saving incentives. I am sure most countries probably have some form of tax free saving plan so maybe google that phrase with your home country. That is a part of the problem for people commenting on tax issues on forums as we are often all from different tax regimes but people might not take this into account when e.g. Louis or myself comment on crypto tax issues. It would be great for somebody with appropriate knowledge in each jurisdiction to set up a blog but I suspect that with 100 accountants you might still get 50 different answers especially with regards to crypto because it is so new and counter to general fiat methodologies. Caution is the best course at present I feel so perhaps have a ledger nano s with earmarked tax fund in relatively stable coin e.g. BTC/ETH/LTC which can be redeployed into "moon coins" if it turns out that you do not have to pay as much as you thought. Yes you might lose a little in the short term but you will still make far more than traditional savings or equities and also have the reassurance that you won't be caught out (so hopefully live longer to invest in crypto to compensate)

Funny that a lot of tax advice regarding crypto I have found is on steemit and bitcointalk. Not to say I fully follow those advice but crypto is so brand new that a typical tax accountant usually has no idea how to deal with cryptos. I hope this changes very soon. US is terrible now because the country just revised crypto investing that can not be deductible in 2018. That means every trade made if its a profit the profit will get taxed. Rough start to the new year for US crypto investors.
