Closing the $$bn Gap: Entering a New Era in Financial Compliance and Enforcement

The curation of content and speakers was wholly managed by Taxbit and does not reflect the views of the organisers or its staff.

With billions in crypto-related tax revenue going uncollected each year—and non-compliance rates as high as 90%—governments are confronting a significant enforcement gap. This session will unpack the far-reaching implications of the OECD’s Crypto-Asset Reporting Framework (CARF), highlighting how it will redefine compliance expectations for both businesses and users. We’ll also explore the rising importance of off-chain data under CARF and how authorities can bridge the gap between off-chain and on-chain sources to enable truly comprehensive financial crime investigations.

What You’ll Learn:

Why crypto tax compliance is currently broken — and what’s driving the multi-billion dollar gap
How CARF’s institutional reporting requirements will impact VASPs and reshape the compliance landscape
Practical insights into how leading crypto platforms are preparing for new mandates, including user self-certifications, transaction tracking, and reporting
Strategies to comply with minimal disruption to user experience and operational workflows
Cutting-edge approaches to integrating on-chain and off-chain data for holistic financial crime investigations
