White House Proposes Crypto Tax Reporting Requirements for Foreign Accounts
The White House has urged Congress to draft legislation mandating U.S. taxpayers to disclose foreign cryptocurrency holdings, framing the move as a measure to level the playing field for domestic crypto firms. The 168-page policy report argues that without such reporting requirements, American investors might shift assets offshore, putting local exchanges at a competitive disadvantage.
Beyond tax compliance, the document outlines sweeping recommendations for digital asset regulation—from stablecoin oversight to anti-money laundering safeguards. The proposals emerge as part of a broader effort to formalize crypto market structure while addressing concerns about illicit finance.
