🚀 U.S. House Moves to Repeal IRS Rule on DeFi Platforms
#USHouse #IRS #DeFi #cryptocurrency #bipartisan #regulation #privacy #digitalasset #innovation #governmentoverreach #repeal
According to ShibDaily, the U.S. House of Representatives has voted to repeal the IRS DeFi broker rule, a regulation that would have required decentralized finance (DeFi) platforms to report user transactions to the Internal Revenue Service (IRS). The House approved the measure with a 292-132 vote, showcasing bipartisan support for overturning the rule. While opposition primarily came from Democratic lawmakers, 76 Democrats joined Republicans in favor of the repeal. This decision follows the U.S. Senate's approval of the repeal on March 4, with a 70-27 vote, indicating widespread bipartisan agreement.
The IRS DeFi broker rule, if implemented, would mandate DeFi platforms, including decentralized exchanges, to report gross proceeds from cryptocurrency sales and provide taxpayer information related to these transactions. Critics argue that the decentralized nature of these platforms makes compliance with such reporting requirements challenging. Republican Representative Mike Carey, who submitted the repeal motion, stated that the rule invades the privacy of millions of Americans and hinders the development of the DeFi industry in the United States. House Financial Services Committee Chairman French Hill also praised the repeal, asserting that the IRS rule was detrimental to innovation within the digital asset industry. Hill described the rule as government overreach that could push American digital asset development overseas.
The resolution must undergo another vote in the Senate before reaching U.S. President Donald Trump, who has indicated his approval of the repeal. This effort highlights the ongoing debate over how to regulate the digital asset industry effectively without stifling its growth or compromising user privacy. As the industry continues to evolve, policymakers are tasked with finding a balance between regulatory oversight and fostering innovation. The repeal of the IRS DeFi broker rule underscores the challenges faced by lawmakers in navigating the complexities of digital asset regulation.#USHouse #IRS #DeFi #cryptocurrency #bipartisan #regulation #privacy #digitalasset #innovation #governmentoverreach #repeal

According to Odaily, trader Eugene Ng Ah Sio shared insights in a Telegram group regarding key support levels for SOL and BTC. He identified $80 as a critical support level for SOL, suggesting it as a potential buy point for mean reversion. However, if SOL falls below $80, the next significant support could be at $25.
For Bitcoin (BTC), Eugene anticipates strong support in the $74,000 to $76,000 range. He noted that if MicroStrategy does not engage in large-scale selling, $52,000 could serve as a solid support level. Conversely, if selling occurs, $25,000 might become the new bottom.
Additionally, Eugene has removed Ethereum (ETH) from his portfolio, indicating a cautious outlook on its short-term prospects.#SOL #BTC #supportlevels #trading #cryptocurrency #investing #meanreversion #ETH
🚀 U.S. Treasury Engages Crypto Custodians on National Bitcoin Reserve Management

According to BlockBeats, the U.S. Treasury recently held discussions with executives from three cryptocurrency custody firms to explore strategies for managing the national strategic Bitcoin reserve. Anchorage Digital was among the firms involved in these meetings. Anchorage CEO Nathan McCauley noted that Treasury officials inquired extensively about best practices for Bitcoin reserves and digital asset custody, as well as the impact of custody on stablecoins and market structure.
Congressional sources indicate that the Treasury is currently in the research phase and has not yet established a definitive stance. However, it is actively seeking input from industry experts. The current inclination is to have third-party institutions manage the government's Bitcoin reserves, with a long-term goal of achieving self-custody. For various seized digital assets under government control, reliance on third-party custody may continue for an extended period. The U.S. Treasury has not commented on these developments.#USTreasury #BitcoinReserve #CryptoCustody #AnchorageDigital #DigitalAssets #Stablecoins #MarketStructure #ThirdPartyCustody #SelfCustody #BTC

🚀 Wall Street's Gold Rush: Analysts Advise Caution Amid Market Trends
#WallStreet #GoldRush #MarketTrends #InvestmentCaution #GoldPriceForecast #PortfolioDiversifier #BullMarket #PriceCorrection #EconomicGrowth #RiskManagement
According to Odaily, analyst Karishma Vanjani highlights a growing interest in gold on Wall Street, urging investors to exercise caution. Major financial institutions like JPMorgan and Goldman Sachs recommend holding onto gold, while BNP Paribas has recently raised its gold price forecast. BlackRock has also been advocating for gold as a portfolio diversifier for several months. These strategies have proven effective so far, but they are not without risks.
Firstly, gold has been in a bull market since September 2022, leading to concerns that it may be overvalued. This situation increases the likelihood of a price correction, as the current prices may already reflect the potential gains from this period. Early investors might be tempted to sell and secure profits, which could impact the market.
Additionally, if the U.S. government's efforts to reform the federal system succeed, gold could face challenges. Economic growth typically has an inverse relationship with gold; when the economy thrives, investors often prefer riskier assets like stocks, reducing gold's appeal.#WallStreet #GoldRush #MarketTrends #InvestmentCaution #GoldPriceForecast #PortfolioDiversifier #BullMarket #PriceCorrection #EconomicGrowth #RiskManagement
