France backs reporting for self-custodied crypto worth 100K euros or more

French lawmakers are advancing a legislative amendment that specifically targets self-custodied digital asset holdings. Under the proposed rule, taxpayers would be mandated to declare non-custodial crypto holdings exceeding 100,000 euros, equivalent to approximately $112,000. The primary goal of this policy is to increase tax transparency and combat potential money laundering via decentralized wallet infrastructure. However, the provision must still successfully navigate the broader parliamentary budget approval process to become active law. Implementing strict reporting requirements on self-custody could impose substantial compliance obligations on European investors. This initiative reflects a growing push by European regulators to integrate non-custodial wallet oversight into formal fiscal reporting frameworks.
