Japan Eyes Tax Reform for Cryptocurrency Income

According to ChainCatcher, Japan’s Liberal Democratic Party and Japan Innovation Party are proposing a 2026 fiscal tax reform that would treat cryptocurrencies as financial products for public asset accumulation. The plan suggests a separate taxation system for crypto income, similar to stocks and investment trusts.

Spot trading, derivatives, and crypto ETFs would fall under this system, with losses carryable for three years. Financial products investing in virtual currencies are included, though NFTs and reward-based activities like staking and lending remain unclear. The proposal also hints that future crypto gains may be taxed when transferred abroad.
