TechFlame News – According to NL Times, the Dutch House of Representatives recently debated a proposal to reform the Box 3 tax system. The plan aims to impose an annual tax on capital gains—both realized and unrealized—from assets such as stocks, bonds, and cryptocurrencies starting in 2028. While most lawmakers acknowledge flaws in the proposal and express concerns about taxing unrealized gains, it is expected to gain majority support due to the estimated €2.3 billion annual loss to the treasury if implementation is delayed.
