French lawmakers have approved a new regulation requiring owners of cryptocurrency wallets to declare their assets if they exceed $112,000, according to CoinTelegraph. This move aims to increase transparency and combat tax evasion within the growing crypto sector.

Failure to comply with the reporting rule could result in fines up to 10,000 euros. The regulation highlights France’s commitment to tightening oversight on digital assets amid rising global scrutiny of crypto markets.

For Japanese investors and traders, this development signals the increasing regulatory focus on crypto assets internationally, which could influence compliance expectations and market dynamics in Japan as well.
