Maurice Weber wrote that the GTA leaker wants to release the entire game if his cryptocurrency rises to 30 million. At the same time, the leaker presents himself as a hero who is supposedly only concerned with physical disks. Weber described the action as one of the most promising candidates for the shabbiest gaming action of the year. https://t.co/7DMSBsMfpe #GTA #GamingNews #Kryptowährung (translated)
The author wrote that in his opinion, more and more responsibilities were being transferred from the member states to the EU. He mentioned as the next step a central oversight over exchanges and crypto platforms and stated that national responsibility would increasingly be replaced by control from Brussels. https://t.co/7V3g7jO2hr #EU #Finanzaufsicht #Börsen #EU (translated)
Marc Friedrich wrote that France is bankrupt, characterized by unrest, and has a state quota of 57 percent. At the same time, he believes the country needs more and more taxes and sources of revenue. In the finance committee of the National Assembly, an exit tax on cryptocurrencies has been decided: Those leaving the country with more than 800,000 euros in Bitcoin or other cryptocurrencies will have to pay; coins on exchanges will also be affected. Starting from January 1, 2027, exchanging into stablecoins will also be considered a taxable sale. The proposal will go into the budget debate on October 13. Friedrich warned that first money will be devalued, then assets will be taxed that people use to escape from this money, and finally the escape itself will be taxed. He wrote that the planned tax is part of creeping capital controls; France is just the beginning, and Germany is closely watching the development. He described Bitcoin as freedom rather than a speculative object and wrote that the state wants to control it for this reason. He advised diversifying assets and also thinking across different countries and legal systems. #Frankreich #Bitcoin #Steuern (translated)
Experts believe that the Bitcoin low may already be behind us, as the price development increasingly depends on the high yields of US government bonds, and the market has coped well with the current external conditions despite resilient technology stocks. #Bitcoin #Kryptowährung #Finanzmarkt (translated)

RobynHD criticized that the Bundestag had rejected two motions to abolish the tax-free Bitcoin holding period the day before. The Greens had called for cryptocurrency gains to be taxed at the personal income tax rate, regardless of the holding period. A total of 132 representatives voted in favor, while 445 voted against. A motion from the Left Party had also failed. This proposed, among other things, taxation akin to stocks, an exit tax, and a EU-wide trading ban for certain proof-of-work coins. The CDU/CSU, SPD, and AfD rejected the proposals. However, the vote does not mean that the abolition is off the table, RobynHD wrote. The SPD-led Ministry of Finance is working on a reform that is also supposed to end the one-year holding period. Bitcoin purchased from 2027 onwards should be taxed at a basic rate of 26.375 percent; existing holdings would be protected. The cabinet is expected to address the proposal on October 14. RobynHD acknowledged that other legislative proposals had been up for decision during the vote. Nonetheless, from the author's perspective, it is alarming that work continues on the abolition despite the clear rejection. The Union could still prevent the reform, but RobynHD has little hope. #Bitcoin #Krypto #Steuern (translated)
Blocktrainer reported that Georg Günther from the CDU did not see a convincing reason for a system change in the Bundestag and distinguished cryptocurrencies from traditional securities.

Michał Rachoń wrote that the Central Bureau of Cybercrime has been unable to identify the perpetrators of cyberattacks on his station and journalists for over six months, while at the same time dealing with the statements of Roman Giertych, whom he described as an acquaintance linked to cryptocurrencies. He accused Giertych of robbing tens of thousands of people and stated that he had become an authority for Donald Tusk, whom the Prime Minister referred to in the Sejm. Rachoń assessed that the structure subordinate to Marcin Kierwiński should have prevented the ongoing attacks and demanded the resignation of its leadership. #cyberprzestępczość #polityka #dziennikarstwo (translated)
Magda wrote that Nawrocki's vetoes regarding the cryptocurrency law, CPN, and DSA came back to him like a boomerang. She assessed that each of these issues was presented as a great conflict between the Palace and the government and an attempt to defend freedom and Poles from Donald Tusk, but every time — as she stated — it clashed with reality. #Polityka #Wolność #Kryptowaluty (translated)

Blocktrainer wrote that the Bundestag rejected both a draft law from the Greens and a proposal from the Left to abolish the Bitcoin holding period. The Greens had proposed to tax crypto gains as income regardless of the holding period. The Left called for the taxation of Bitcoin and other cryptocurrencies like stocks, as well as subjection to exit taxation. According to Blocktrainer, the draft law from the Greens had already failed in the Finance Committee in May and is now definitively off the table. #Bitcoin #Kryptowährungen #Bundestag (translated)
Furkan Yildirim wrote that the Bitcoin correction has occurred and many are now getting nervous again.

Tech stocks outlined a timeline for a possible abolition of the holding period for Bitcoin and other cryptocurrencies: On October 12, a petition hearing is scheduled, on October 14 a cabinet decision. The first reading in the Bundestag is to take place in mid-November, the discussion in the finance committee at the end of November, and the second and third readings in mid-December. For December 18, Tech stocks mentioned a vote in the Bundesrat; as of January 1, the amendment could come into effect if the CDU/CSU agrees. Tech stocks accused the Union of betraying its supporters again and estimated the chances of the lifting of the holding period, despite resistance within the Union, at 60 to 70 percent. #Bitcoin #Kryptowährung #Blockchain (translated)
