Greece moves to tax crypto gains at 10% under new draft law
AI Market Summary
Greece's draft law would introduce a first-time legal framework for taxing digital assets, setting a flat 10% capital gains tax on cryptocurrencies with a €500 annual de minimis exemption. The rate is lower than earlier 15% discussions, but formalizes compliance and reporting expectations. Exempting solo miners while taxing corporate mining under standard accounting may shift operational structuring for mining-related activity tied to BTC and majors.

Greece is preparing to introduce its first dedicated tax framework for digital assets. The Ministry of Economy and Finance has published a draft bill that would levy a flat 10% capital gains tax on all cryptocurrencies, including $BTC, $XRP and $ETH.
The proposed rate is lower than the 15% discussed earlier in initial talks. The draft also includes a de minimis threshold, exempting the first €500 of annual capital gains.
The legislation is scheduled to be formally presented to the Greek parliament in November 2026. Under the proposal, independent solo miners would be exempt from tax liability, while corporate mining firms would be taxed under standard corporate balance-sheet rules.
