Japan’s 2026 tax reform blueprint proposes separate taxation for crypto trading, derivatives market activity, and ETFs. The plan treats crypto gains apart from general income, allowing loss carryforwards for up to three years. Staking and NFT income may stay under standard tax rules. The fear and greed index for digital assets is expected to shift as the government frames them as long-term financial products, not speculative bets. Loss offsetting across asset classes is not permitted.
