And tax imports from places which don’t tax carbon. Works for physical stuff, doesn’t work for digital stuff.

Depends on the digital stuff. BTC in particular is incredibly traceable. Tax on conversion to fiat if source of BTC is a country that doesn't tax carbon. Any sensible anti money laundering system should be tracking all the relevant information anyway.
