Wu Blockchain has learned that the German federal government plans to reform its crypto asset tax system. According to a ministerial draft from the German Ministry of Finance, exchangeable crypto assets like Bitcoin and Ethereum acquired or received after December 31, 2026, will have their sale proceeds, as well as Lending and Staking income, subject to withholding tax as capital gains, and will no longer enjoy tax exemption after holding for 12 months. Crypto assets acquired prior to this date will still follow the current rules. The bill is scheduled to take effect on January 1, 2027, with crypto service providers responsible for automatic tax withholding starting January 1, 2028. NFTs, certain stablecoins, Security Tokens, and some crypto assets linked to real-world assets are proposed to be excluded from the new regulations. https://(wublock123.com)/news/germany-tax-change-crypto-capital-gains-withholding-2028-68048
