Petition to keep Germany's one-year crypto holding period reaches Bundestag

  • —Petition gathered 44,439 signatures, above the 30,000 threshold
  • —Bundestag committee hearing scheduled for October 12
  • —Cabinet to review the crypto tax reform on October 14
  • —Assets bought before January 1, 2027 would keep grandfathered treatment
Why it matters: Scrapping the one-year holding period would remove a tax break for German investors and could weigh on long-term bitcoin demand in the country.
