Greece has introduced a 10% tax on cryptocurrency gains, with the first €500 of annual profits exempt, establishing its first comprehensive crypto tax framework. The policy aims to provide clarity for investors while balancing investor protection with regulatory oversight, and could influence broader EU tax policy discussions. The move follows similar efforts across Europe to formalize crypto taxation as digital assets gain mainstream adoption. What to watch next is whether other EU member states adopt comparable thresholds or rates as the bloc works toward harmonized crypto rules.
