Chainalysis estimates global onchain taxable crypto activity topped $457 billion in 2025 across six major networks, including Bitcoin, Ethereum, Solana, Tron, BNB Smart Chain, and Base, according to The Block.

The data covers combined gains and income from mining, staking, lending, and gambling, as well as crypto-powered payments, and Chainalysis said centralized exchange activity was excluded, making the $457 billion figure a lower boundary.

Regionally, the U.S. accounted for $112.6 billion of the total, followed by North America at $134.6 billion and the European Union at $125.1 billion, with East Asia at $54.7 billion.

Chainalysis also found CARF-covered events represented just 14% of the activity in its analysis, even as the OECD framework expands crypto transaction reporting, with information exchanges under CARF set to begin in 2027.
