Another tweet said that the country aims to offer zero income tax, capital gains tax, property tax, and payroll tax. Instead, Bitcoin City will run dependent on 10% sales tax and $1 billion in tokenized bonds.
In essence, Bitcoin City will function like a free trade zone, which offers business incentives that are commonly not offered in regular business areas.
