Move to Portugal to become a crypto digital nomad — Everybody else is
Your guide to moving to Portugal as a crypto digital nomad — and why 0% crypto gains tax and an amazing lifestyle makes it a great option.
New York-based crypto hedge fund manager Catrina Wang missed her flight home from a conference in Portugal back in 2022 and ended up loving the country so much she has since moved there permanently.
Forced to find a hotel at the last minute, her stay in the beautiful forested area of Sintra made the Canadian-born Wang rethink living in the United States.
I was like Wow, Im coming back and I bought a place at the end of 2023, she says. Wang now lives in beachfront Cascais on the outskirts of Lisbon.
A general partner at Portal Ventures which manages $120 million in assets across two crypto funds, Wang says theres a growing expat community of crypto founders and VCs, many of whom shoot the breeze in a group chat she curates.
There’s been almost a mini exodus of crypto people. A lot of fund managers and successful founders [went] from New York to Lisbon, that’s been a consistent trend, especially this year.
