ChainCatcher report, according to Crypto In America, the U.S. House Committee on Ways and Means will hold a hearing this Tuesday on cryptocurrency tax reform, reviewing seven draft proposals covering stablecoin transactions, mining and staking, crypto lending, wash sale rules, charitable donations, and taxpayer disclosures—effectively splitting the previously proposed Digital Asset Equality Act into multiple standalone bills. Meanwhile, negotiations on the Senate’s CLEAR Act continue, with Senator Lummis indicating the bill is more likely to advance after Congress reconvenes on July 13. Key points of contention include ethical provisions, DeFi regulatory language, and stablecoin yield rules; the banking industry continues to lobby against the stablecoin yield provision, while over 200 crypto organizations have jointly signed a letter urging swift legislative action. Additionally, Illinois is proposing a 0.2% tax on digital asset transactions, prompting strong opposition from industry groups warning that such a measure could drive crypto businesses out of the state.
