The Treasury is COMING For Crypto!! End of DeFi in the US?!
🚨 New Video Alert!! 🚨
Do you remember the infamous Infrastructure Bill that was passed in 2021?
To refresh your memory, it contained a problematic provision that expanded the definition of broker in such a way that it could apply to miners, validators, and dApps.
Well, the Treasury department (which was behind the provision) recently released its proposal for its finalised crypto tax rules. Lo and behold, it states that DeFi protocols and even crypto wallets could have to collect KYC for tax purposes in the US.
The good news is that the Treasury is taking comments on the proposed rules until the fall. The bad news is that its blatantly anti-crypto stance suggests it’s not looking for comments from the crypto industry. This could be very bad, and not just for the US.
Watch to find out why.
