House Republicans have proposed a new 5% remittance tax in a comprehensive tax reform bill, impacting cryptocurrency holders in the U.S.
Introduced on May 13, the bill aims to make Trump-era tax cuts permanent while introducing new tax breaks and adjustments.
The bill offers a $5 trillion cut to American taxpayers but also includes new requirements for Medicaid coverage, potentially impacting social programs.
The proposed 5% remittance tax exempts peer-to-peer crypto transactions, potentially driving increased adoption of digital assets for cross-border payments.
