While the House of Representatives of the United States digs in the policy of digital assets during what the legislators stylized the “cryptography week” next week, the committee which focuses on tax policy will discuss the right track to tax crypto.
House President Ways and Means Committee, representative Jason Smith, announced a July 16 audience on the surveillance subcommittee to examine the “affirmative stages necessary to place a fiscal policy framework on digital assets”, according to a statement.
Cryptographic taxation is then online behind the overall market regulations and the supervision of stablecoins as a leading policy that should draw attention to the congress. The two main legislative efforts should both be an action next week, including a potential vote of the Chamber to approve the bill recently adopted by the Senate to regulate stablecoin issuers.
The tax activity on digital assets has long been a grinding around the neck of the industry, because until cryptographic taxes obtain a reliable and rational American tax regime, investors must face uncertainty in their accounting approach. The announcement of the hearing of the Chamber intervenes in the heels of the introduction by a bill by Senator Cynthia Lummis one last week in the other Congress Chamber which addresses some of the persistent complaints of cryptocurrency users.
LUMMIS legislation would set a threshold of $ 300 on cryptographic transactions that should take into account user tax calculations, releasing small people’s daily transactions from capital headaches – limited to a total of $ 5,000 per year. And this would also eliminate the double taxation on the crypto given in the development, the mining, the paratroopers and the forks, eliminating the initial tax when the rewards are received and focusing solely on the tax gains of the possible sale.
We do not know what the Chamber has in mind for the moment, but the committee led by the Republicans is looking for a policy adapted to the industry, with the audience entitled “Making America the Crypto Capital
of the world: Ensuring the policy of digital assets built for the 21st century. “”
