Not confirmed: Exact end date of the Irish transition: the CBI page states both 29 Dec 2025 and 31 Dec 2025; visible text says 'end of December 2025' · Crypto-to-crypto swaps: Revenue's manual does not mention them explicitly (general CGT principle that exchanging one asset for another is a disposal) · Tax treatment of staking, lending and airdrops (no Revenue guidance found) · Whether the 31% rate is final law (Finance Bill 2026) — Revenue page already applies it from 7 Oct 2026
