I was honored to testify today before @WaysandMeansGOP on staking and tax policy. Thanks to Chairman @RepDavid & @RepTerriSewell for their leadership. As I said in my testimony, a functioning digital economy requires a functioning tax framework. @Crypto_council looks forward to working with you to create it.

1/ This morning, CCI’s Crypto Week activity turned to taxes and staking. @AMangiero testified in @WaysandMeansGOP about why modernizing crypto tax policy is critical to US leadership in the digital economy. Here’s what she told lawmakers: 🧵

Stablecoin rewards are market-based incentives, which benefit consumers. Stablecoin rewards facilitate customer acquisition, allow for customer loyalty, build merchant acceptance, and ensure continued U.S. leadership over stablecoin innovation and adoption. As @faryarshirzad points out, if the U.S. limits stablecoin rewards, consumer adoption can and will move offshore, along with the underlying technology, developers, and much more, which will only negatively impact the U.S. and continued dollar dominance. "[T]he ability to offer rewards. . . means lower costs, more choice, and a more competitive payments system for Americans." 💯🇺🇸
Faryar Shirzad 🛡️@faryarshirzad

The Senate Banking Committee marks up the Market Structure bill next week, and stablecoin rewards remain under debate. Congress already settled this in GENIUS—reopening it now only creates uncertainty and risks the future of the US Dollar as commerce moves onchain. Here’s why Congress should protect the GENIUS Act, and why rewards help consumers without harming community banks. 1/ 🧵

Many sections outline the general direction of the policy in question but note the technical details are still TBD. Expecting those to be worked out early in the new year. 👀

Long awaited discussion draft of the crypto tax bill from @RepMaxMiller just dropped. Looking like crypto tax issues will be front and center as we head into 2026👇
Congressman Max Miller@RepMaxMiller

Alongside @RepHorsford, I released a working draft of The Digital Asset PARITY Act, a bipartisan effort to bring clarity and parity to crypto tax policy. This bill would protect consumers making everyday purchases, ensure the rules are clear for innovators and investors, and strengthen compliance so everyone plays by the same rules. maxmiller.house.gov/posts/congress…

Staking is an essential component of modern blockchain infrastructure and U.S. tax rules must reflect the economic reality of how these rewards are created and earned. The 2023 staking guidance unfortunately did not fully capture that reality and its relation to longstanding tax principles. Congress has an important opportunity in 2026 to enact legislation that provides clear, administrable rules that clarify the proper timing of taxation and establish workable sourcing rules. Modernizing the tax code in these areas will reduce compliance burdens, promote fairness, and strengthen the US position as a leader in digital asset innovation. @crypto_council appreciates @RepMikeCarey for raising and leading on this important issue.
Congressman Mike Carey@RepMikeCarey

Today, I was proud to lead a group of my @HouseGOP colleagues in a letter to @SecScottBessent urging him and the @IRSnews to issue fair tax treatment for crypto stakers. America must remain the crypto capital of the world! Read more about the letter here:

In short, we like Mike. Proud to sign this letter in support of @michaelselig’s nomination and looking forward to his swift confirmation.
Crypto Council for Innovation@crypto_council

As today’s @SenateAg hearing reflected, @michaelselig is well qualified to serve as Chairman of the CFTC. His deep expertise across derivatives, market structure, and digital assets - as well as his record of principled collaborative public service - will allow him to guide the Agency at this pivotal moment. We respectfully urge the Senate to confirm him.

The release of the Senate Agriculture Committee’s bipartisan market structure discussion draft bill marks positive progress toward establishing a comprehensive legislative framework. CCI thanks Senators @JohnBoozman, @SenBooker, and their staff for their continued tireless leadership even during the government shutdown. Momentum is building for clear rules and U.S. leadership in digital assets. CCI stands committed as a constructive partner in this critical mission—the time is now, and we are grateful for Senate Ag’s leadership. agriculture.senate.gov/newsroom/rep/p…

Today's @USTreasury and @IRSnews guidance removes a major barrier that prevented institutions from participating in staking. It also affirms what the market already knows: staking is here to stay, and thoughtful policy can ensure it thrives responsibly in the United States. This guidance not only concretely builds on @SECGov's recent staking guidance, it also shows that Treasury is delivering on key areas of focus outlined in the President’s Working Group Report. Another meaningful step toward a coherent digital asset policy framework in the United States.
Treasury Secretary Scott Bessent@SecScottBessent

Today @USTreasury and the @IRSnews issued new guidance giving crypto exchange-traded products (ETPs) a clear path to stake digital assets and share staking rewards with their retail investors. This move increases investor benefits, boosts innovation, and keeps America the global leader in digital asset and blockchain technology.
