The UK will delay the imposition of capital gains tax on DeFi's lending and liquidity pool deposits

On 15 July, the British tax authorities confirmed that the deposit of encrypted assets into the DeFi loan agreement and the mobility pool would no longer be considered taxable. This means that investors do not have to pay capital gains tax until economic assets are disposed of. This adjustment was published in a policy paper issued by the British Government and will enter into force on 6 April 2027 and will amend the Taxable Proceeds Act 1992. This policy change will affect approximately 700,000 individuals and trustees using encrypted loans and liquidity pool services。
