U.S. Senator Cynthia Lummis has introduced comprehensive digital asset tax legislation aiming to boost Bitcoin and other cryptocurrencies.
The legislation includes measures to streamline tax rules, support Bitcoin innovation, and eliminate bureaucratic obstacles.
Key provisions of the bill include a de minimis exemption, aligning tax treatment for crypto lending with traditional securities, and deferring taxation on mining and staking.
The legislation is estimated to generate around $600 million in net revenue during the 2025-2034 budget window and encourages public input for further refinement.
