Mis on Poppin?

Yesterday, members of the Senate introduced an amendment to the $1T infrastructure bill attempting to redefine the controversial language concerning cryptocurrency “brokers” found in the original version — which proposes to generate $28B in revenue through stricter crypto taxation.

Senators Ron Wyden, Pat Toomey, and Cynthia Lummis reached across party lines to propose a change that would explicitly exclude validators, hardware and software wallets, and protocol devs from being treated as brokers.

Under the original language, miners, validators, and other crypto actors, as brokers, would be legally required to file 1099 forms  and report crypto transactions above $10,000 (Forbes) to the Internal Revenue Service.

On puperdama, Toomey explained the motive behind the amendment, writing, “By clarifying the definition of broker, our amendment will ensure non-financial intermediaries like miners, network validators, and other service providers are not subject to the reporting requirements specified in the bipartisan infrastructure package.”

The crypto industry was quick to get behind the Senatorial movement, with Blockchain Association and Coin Center, in conjunction with Coinbase, Ribbit Capital, and Square, releasing a joint avaldus supporting the amendment.

Despite the quick rally from Wyden, Lummis, and Toomey, along with the crypto community at large, the amendment still needs to gain support from 60 senators. Senator Rob Portman, it appears, will not be voting for the amendment, as he usub, the original language should not affect most non-broker actors. Said Portman, “the legislation does not impose new reporting requirements on software developers, crypto miners, node operators or other non-brokers.”

It remains to be seen how the rest of the Senate feels, though we will most likely find out soon, as the infrastructure bill is expected to be voted on by the end of the week, according to Avaldage lahti.

Kas DeFi nutikat lepingut saab reguleerida? Kaks CFTC volinikku arutavad

CFTC volinikud Dan Berkovitz ja Brian Quintenz arutavad krüptoderivatiivide ja DeFi reguleerimise raskusi. Kuva esiletõstmised:

• nende taustad
• millised on CFTC kohustused seoses krüptoga
• kuidas CFTC jurisdiktsioon on aastate jooksul arenenud
• miks volinik Quintenz usub, et SECi voliniku Hester Peirce'i "turvalise sadama" ettepanek on "hiilgav"
• milline on CFTC ja SEC suhe krüptovarade kohta otsuste tegemisel
• miks volinikud usuvad, et CFTC kaebused BitMEXi kohta on "hästi põhjendatud"
• miks CFTC ei koosta tõenäoliselt krüptoderivaatide ametlikku regulatsiooni
• miks finantsvõimendusega tuletisinstrumentide tooted on CFTC jaoks „mureks”.
• mis teeb DeFi platvormide reguleerimise nii keeruliseks
• kui tegemist on DeFiga, kes on CFTC jaoks loomulik üksus, mida reguleerida, kui seda on
• kas CFTC läheks kunagi DeFi "turuosaliste" järele, keda CFTC samuti reguleerib
• miks futuure hõlmavad nutikad lepingud võivad olla ebaseaduslikud
• kuidas võimalus, et nutikad lepingud võivad olla illegaalsed, paneb välja seisukoha, et tarkvaraarendus on sõnavabaduse vorm
• kas CFTC võiks arukad lepinguid kirjutavad arendajad vastutusele võtta
• kas CFTC peab DeFi innovatsiooni valguses oma seadused ümber kirjutama
• miks volinik Berkovitz arvab, et DeFi võitjad on protokollid, mis keskenduvad regulatiivsete nõuete täitmisele
• miks CFTC kiitis Bitcoini futuurid 2017. aastal heaks, samas kui SEC pole veel Bitcoini ETF-i heaks kiitnud
• kuidas Bitcoini ETF saaks lahendada Bitcoini raamatupidamisprobleemi, mis praegu ei anna ettevõtetele BTC bilanssi lisamist
