Australia asked for help, and the Bull Bitcoin team delivered. Fighting the same battle on the other side of the world, they shared valuable pointers for anyone yet to make a submission. Lean into Martina’s four points. They are very valuable. What Bull Bitcoin is challenging before the Conseil d’État (Council of State), France’s highest administrative court: 1. The law: Bull Bitcoin is seeking to annul Decree No. 2025-1276, which brings the EU’s DAC8 directive into French law. 2. Privacy: It argues the rules could enable a mass database of identity and address linked transaction data. 3. Physical safety: It argues a centralised database of crypto holders’ identities puts them at physical risk, citing France’s high rate of attacks on crypto holders and past breaches of French public databases. 4. Proportionality: It argues DAC8 centralises sensitive data well beyond what legitimate tax verification requires. The court rejected an emergency request to suspend the decree, but the main case is ongoing. DAC8 is the EU version of the OECD framework Australia is now legislating. Submissions on the Treasury proposal are due by midnight October 28, 2026.
