Poll: 80% of German investors expect demand to fall if crypto holding exemption ends

  • —68.6% expect the exemption to be scrapped within six months, median 75%
  • —80.1% forecast lower demand, with 22.1% seeing a sharp drop
  • —87.5% expect Germany's crypto business climate to deteriorate
  • —Average six-month BTC forecast is $97,400; optimism index at 70.3
Why it matters: Scrapping the exemption would hit demand in the EU's largest economy and could push capital offshore and into self-custody.
