U.S. House Committee releases crypto tax bill amid staking reward controversy

The House Ways and Means Committee published a 114-page crypto tax bill addressing de minimis transactions, stablecoins $USDT, and lending protocols, but sidestepping the contentious issue of staking reward taxation. The proposal seeks to clarify treatment of crypto fees while preserving existing reward-tax timing mechanics.

The legislation advances Congressional efforts to build a coherent tax framework for digital assets, though industry groups continue lobbying for staking deferrals ahead of a scheduled committee hearing later this week. #regulation #derives #marche
