For an individual relocating to Denmark, most cryptocurrency gains are treated as speculative personal income and taxed at your progressive income tax rates (up to about 53%) whenever you dispose of the assets, with no lower tax or exemption for long-term holding.
“As a general rule, gains are taxed just like your earned income (but without labour market contributions at 8%), because they are included in your personal income. Your personal income depends on your specific income circumstances, and gains on cryptocurrencies can be taxed at up to 53%.” — Skattestyrelsen (Danish Tax Agency)
