The tax is for everything the state does. Your capital gains taxes aren't just a fee to the government in exchange for protecting your crypto, and it's weird to assume that they are.
Of course they aren't. Country takes taxes because it can. And takes it wherever it can. Pretexts don't matter. But I can't blame people who have expectation of fairness to rebel when the government doesn't even bother to provide a plausible pretext.
