Greece Passes Crypto Tax Law With 10% Gains Levy, 15% on Staking and DeFi
希腊通过加密税法:收益税10%,质押和DeFi税15%
Greece's 10% gains levy and 15% staking/DeFi tax leave token swaps unresolved, so traders must weigh compliance costs against unclear rules that lawmakers still have to settle.
Judgment
Greek crypto investors and DeFi users must decide whether to realize gains under a 10% levy with a €500 ($557) annual threshold, or earn staking/DeFi income taxed at 15%, while token-swap treatment remains unresolved—so compliance cost depends on parliament’s next rules.
Basis
The Decrypt report says Greece’s parliament approved a crypto tax framework with a 10% gains levy, a 15% tax on staking and DeFi income, and a €500 ($557) annual gains threshold. The mechanism is that the threshold defines when the gains levy applies, while staking and DeFi income is taxed at 15%; lawmakers left important questions about token swaps unresolved.

Unclear The source does not say whether losses can offset gains, how token swaps will be treated, or when the framework takes effect.
