Regulation in European Union
MiCA (Markets in Crypto-Assets Regulation) is now fully in effect across the EU, establishing a harmonized framework for crypto asset service providers. Staking services fall under CASP licensing requirements. The regulation provides legal certainty but requires platforms to obtain authorization in at least one EU member state.
Tax: Tax treatment varies by member state. Germany exempts crypto held over one year from capital gains; France applies a flat 30% on crypto gains; others vary. Staking rewards are generally taxed as income when received. Consult local tax authorities for country-specific rules.
