Members of the U.S. Senate Finance Committee recently met to discuss ongoing issues with the federal tax treatment of digital assets. Both Republicans and Democrats on the committee essentially agreed that the tax rules are confusing and could use improvement. One of the hearing’s witnesses asserted that the “tax code still treats digital assets as generic property, as if nothing had changed in over a decade.” The lawmakers discussed a potential de minimis rule for small cryptocurrency transactions so that users wouldn’t have to keep detailed records for crypto purchases under, say, $200. And they talked about the tax treatment of crypto staking and mining rewards.
I've been trying a few tools lately just to see how they model trading activity before risking actual money. One that caught my attention was the ChartUp sol volume bot. It's obviously not something that magically improves your trades, but I did find the volume simulation useful for getting another perspective. I still rely on my own analysis, but having a rough idea of how volume might behave helps me think through entries and exits a bit better.
