France advances stablecoin tax, eyes self-custodial wallets and exit tax proposals

France's National Assembly adopted an amendment to its crypto tax framework that targets certain stablecoin swaps, while separate proposals on an exit tax and reporting requirements for self-custodial wallets remain under consideration. The measure is not yet final law, but it signals tightening fiscal treatment of stablecoin activity and potential new compliance burdens for holders using non-custodial wallets. Traders should watch for the exit-tax and self-custody provisions, since they could affect French users' on-chain behavior and stablecoin liquidity in the EU.
