Germany's hitting a fiscal milestone nobody asked for. Tax burden plus social security contributions? Climbing to 41.5% in 2025. That's a new peak, per IW's latest crunch. Workers there are watching nearly half their income vanish before it hits the bank. Makes you wonder how long traditional finance can squeeze before capital starts hunting alternatives. Pressure's building.

German taxes are really insane, 41.5% just cuts away half your income. No wonder everyone is moving on-chain.

Germans have to give up half of their salary, and there are still people who believe in the traditional financial system? I don’t believe it.

A 41.5% tax burden in Germany? Those people would have left the scene long ago; capital isn’t stupid.
