House Committee Preparing Cryptocurrency Tax Legislation, Hearings Likely Early Next Week
Odaily Planet Daily reports that the U.S. House Committee on Ways and Means is preparing legislation to build a cryptocurrency tax structure, potentially releasing it as early as Friday, with hearings likely to be held early next week. Committee Chair Jason Smith’s top priority will be to establish a framework for digital asset taxation, with the involvement of the Treasury Department in the process.
The committee is expected to release seven bills addressing when taxes apply to tokens obtained through mining or staking, exemptions from capital gains tax for certain stablecoin transactions, equivalence in tax treatment for digital assets and securities (including charitable donations), a safe harbor allowing foreign investors to trade U.S. securities without being taxed as domestic entities, and extending wash sale rules to digital assets.

Odaily Planet Daily reports that Coinbase Ventures has stated it has invested in Ethena by purchasing ENA tokens via the open market. Following the announcement, ENA has increased by about 6% over the past 24 hours.
Ethena states that both parties will collaborate to promote the development of on-chain finance and savings products. Coinbase has also mentioned that the two will establish closer cooperation, which involves the USDC stablecoin under Circle.
Ethena founder Guy Young stated that Ethena’s products will first connect to Coinbase's user base of over 100 million next week to support its USD savings products. The market is paying attention to how both parties will collaborate around USDC and Ethena's synthetic dollar USDe. This move comes amid legislative deadlock on the U.S. "Clarity Act," which involves whether platforms like Coinbase can offer rewards for holding stablecoins, against the opposition of bank lobbying groups concerning similar stablecoin yield arrangements.
