Germany's SPD defends plan to scrap one-year crypto tax exemption
- —Bundestag reviewed a petition to preserve the one-year tax-free holding rule
- —SPD argues for scrapping the exemption, with changes possibly taking effect in 2027
- —It remains unclear whether gains after one year will stay tax-free
Why it matters: Scrapping the rule would hit every German bitcoin holder, ending tax-free sales after a year of ownership.
