Here's what crypto holders and traders should understand about the new tax framework:
The key distinction is straightforward—only your actual income gets taxed, not your holdings. Whether you're staking assets, holding spot positions, or sitting on unrealized gains, those balances remain untouched by tax obligations.
This matters because many investors worry about being taxed on their portfolio value. Under this structure, you're only liable when you realize income through trading, withdrawals, or earning rewards. Your account balance itself? That stays protected.
If you're managing a large position, this changes the game for long-term holding strategies.

Wow, finally clarified, it's not taxed based on the holding amount... This way, holding coins long-term really makes me feel more at ease.

Wow, finally no need to worry about your holdings being taxed? Now the logic of long-term holding makes sense.

Wait a minute, is this policy really that kind? Only taxing profits and not holdings? Something feels off...

Someone finally explained clearly, the idea that just holding positions is taxed is really frightening.
