Dutch crypto groups warn wealth-tax reform could trigger investor exodus
- —Crypto is currently taxed in the Netherlands as "other assets" at a deemed return rate
- —The reform could tax actual annual returns, including unrealized gains
- —Industry groups warn the change could trigger crypto sell-offs by investors
Why it matters: A tax on unrealized gains could accelerate crypto selling in the Netherlands and set a precedent for other EU countries weighing similar rules.
