ME News Report, May 30 (UTC+8), a document submitted by the European Commission to member states and the European Parliament shows that the EU is evaluating the possibility of including the crypto industry into a unified tax system to find new sources of revenue for the 2028—2034 budget cycle. The document estimates that a 0.1% tax on crypto asset trading volume could generate approximately 30 to 3B euros annually for the EU; taxing crypto capital gains is expected to increase fiscal revenue by about 10 to 4B euros per year. However, the European Commission also notes that due to incomplete data related to the crypto industry, there is significant uncertainty in the current revenue forecasts, and the actual results may differ from the estimates. The related plan is still under evaluation, and to implement it officially, it must be approved unanimously by all 27 EU member states. If progress goes smoothly, this will become one of the most important discussions on unified tax policies targeting the crypto industry in the EU. (Source: ChainCatcher)

0.1% transaction tax on trading volume—how does the DEX collect it? Can they understand on-chain data?

An annual increase of 3 to 4 billion sounds like a lot, but divided among 27 countries, it's just over 100 million each. What's the point of all the fuss?

It all depends on how you define "transaction"; do airdrops, staking, and NFTs count or not?

The EU is treating cryptocurrencies like an ATM, with a huge budget shortfall.

All 27 countries agree? Then it will probably be debated until 2034.
