the Finance Committee of the German Bundestag has rejected a cryptocurrency tax reform proposal put forward by the Green Party.The proposal originally aimed to abolish the policy that exempts capital gains tax on cryptocurrencies sold after being held for more than one year. Under current German law, individuals are exempt from capital gains tax when selling crypto assets held for over a year.The Green Party argued that crypto assets should be subject to the same tax rules as other investment assets. However, opponents pointed out that the proposal could result in a higher tax burden for crypto investors compared to ordinary stock investors. The Green Party estimated that scrapping the relevant tax exemption could generate an additional approximately €11.4 billion in tax revenue annually for Germany. (Cryptopolitan)
