[Netherlands Plans to Vote on Unrealized Cryptocurrency Gains Tax in November; Industry Warns of Sell-Off Risk] A Dutch crypto industry organization has warned that investors may sell off crypto assets if they are excluded from the proposed new capital gains tax regime.

The Dutch Ministry of Finance stated that differentiating asset classes is a transitional measure to expedite tax reform. The proposal has not yet been finalized, and the Dutch House of Representatives plans to vote on it on November 12. (Source: Bloomberg)
