Bitcoin, Ethereum & Co: So kassieren Sie Ihre Gewinne steuerfrei

Börse Online provides a comprehensive guide on how to make tax-free profits with cryptocurrencies like Bitcoin and Ethereum. The article explains that according to the German Federal Ministry of Finance's application letter from May 2022, gains made after holding coins for more than one year are completely tax-free.

The Bundesfinanzhof confirmed this taxation practice in February 2023 by classifying cryptocurrencies as "other economic goods." For sales within one year, the tax exemption limit has been increased from €600 to €1,000 per person annually. This means any gain under €999.99 remains untaxed; however, exceeding this amount incurs full taxes based on personal income rates.

This bullish trend is expected to continue into next week with potential new all-time highs driven by upcoming events such as the introduction of Spot Ethereum ETFs and the Bitcoin 2024 Conference in Nashville featuring speakers like Donald Trump who might deliver market-moving news.
