BlockFi takes on crypto taxes

Taxing the cryptocurrency industry has been a hot topic in recent weeks.

Earlier this month, the U.S. Senate rejected a revised crypto tax provision in the $1.2 trillion infrastructure bill, which is now on the way to the U.S. House of Representatives for review this autumn.

The original language of the bill carried tax reporting requirements for non-custodial crypto actors, such as miners and software developers. The crypto industry’s advocates claimed the bill was too broad and would undermine innovation.
