US EditionCrypto Tax Proposal That Didn't Make It to Trump's Budget Bill Pushed on Its Own
- Senator Cynthia Lummis introduced a digital asset tax legislation in 2025 aimed at easing regulations on cryptocurrencies in the U.S. government.
- The legislation emerged from a growing crypto sector tied to the Trump family, which expanded ventures including a memecoin and American Bitcoin valued at over $3 billion.
- The bill proposes removing taxes on crypto transactions under $300, ending double taxation for miners and stakers, and establishing tax parity with traditional assets.
- Bloomberg estimates the Trump family's crypto stake is worth about $2 billion, while Forbes projects Trump’s crypto gains could reach $1 billion, highlighting significant wealth from these assets.
- If passed, the legislation could facilitate digital economy participation under a crypto-friendly administration, though political challenges persist for Republicans amid potential special election losses.
