Greece floats 10% crypto capital gains tax, with €500 annual exemption

AI Market Summary
Greece's draft crypto tax bill proposes a 10% capital gains rate (down from 15%), applies the same rate to staking/lending/LP returns, exempts crypto-to-crypto swaps, and shields up to €500 in annual gains. The clearer, reduced headline rate may support local participation and reporting compliance, while extending taxation to yield activities could modestly dampen demand for onshore yield strategies.
