UK Tax Authority Announces ‘No Gain, No Loss’ Treatment for Select Crypto Transactions

in5points
UK HMRC will introduce 'no gain, no loss' treatment for certain crypto lending and liquidity pool transactions.
The policy defers capital gains tax until the participant makes an economic disposal of digital assets.
The change takes effect from April 6, 2027.
Around 700,000 taxpayers and trustees are expected to be affected.
The policy aims to align crypto taxation with the economic nature of decentralised finance activities.
