The bill “On Fair Taxation of Cryptocurrencies” was resubmitted to the House of Representatives of the US Congress. The initiative provides for exemption from capital gains tax when the profit from the use of digital assets does not exceed $200.
The bill was sponsored by Arizona Republican David Schweikert and Washington Democrat Susan DelBene. The co-chairs of the Blockchain Panel Darren Soto and Tom Emmer also participated in the work.
“Approval of the document will allow Americans to use their digital wallet as easily as cash,” said Emmer.
