Australia Plans To End 50% Crypto Capital Gains Tax Discount

Australia is reportedly preparing to scrap its 50% capital gains tax discount for crypto and other long-held assets.

  • Australia plans to eliminate the 50% capital gains tax discount for crypto and other long-held assets, replacing it with an inflation-indexed model.
  • This change, expected in the 2027 budget, will effectively double the tax on real gains for many investors, potentially shifting capital away from productive assets.
  • The reforms apply broadly to crypto, equities, and real estate, with a grace period for assets acquired before May 10, 2027.
