U.S. House panel shares crypto tax bill ahead of hearing later this week

Özet: Kripto piyasasında önemli gelişmeler yaşanıyor.

House of Representatives panel is poised to vote on a major crypto tax effort on Wednesday, potentially kicking off the legislative process for crypto taxes.

The House Ways and Means Committee released a 114-page crypto tax bill late Monday ahead of a Wednesday markup hearing, where lawmakers will debate provisions and vote on whether or not to advance the measure.

The bill, titled the “Digital Asset Tax Certainty Act,” addresses de minimis transactions, gain and loss accounting, transfers, wash sale rules, mining,staking and broker requirements, among others.

The bill follows previous efforts by Representatives Steven Horsford and Max Miller, who introduced various versions of crypto tax legislation over the past year.

The bill would eliminate taxes on de minimis network or transaction fees, meaning any fees below $10, though a person “that engaged in more than 5,000 transfers” over the prior year would be excluded.

Eliminating taxes on minor transactions has been a major ask from the crypto industry in recent years, with advocates arguing that cutting the taxes would better enable digital assets for small purchases, such as cups of coffee.

Currently,people transacting with digital assets must report the capital gain or loss on those transactions, even if they’re small-dollar amounts.

Many of the provisions in the bill address tokenized assets, while another section tries to clarify how ownership might be treated for digital asset disposition purposes.
