More than €100,000 in crypto? MPs want you to declare your wallets

France’s National Assembly adopted an amendment by deputy Charles de Courson requiring taxpayers to declare self-hosted crypto wallets to the tax authority once holdings reach €100,000, while a rival left-backed version setting the threshold at €5,000 was rejected the same evening. The measure targets self-custodied wallets rather than assets held on centralized exchanges, though the article leaves the precise scope of what must be reported to implementing details. The vote matters because it would bring previously invisible self-hosted holdings into the French tax reporting framework for the first time, adding a compliance step for larger retail and investor wallets. It remains to be seen how the €100,000 threshold will be valued and assessed, what information declarations will require, and whether the Senate preserves the amendment in the final text.
