Attention Crypto Miners! 🚨 The U.S. Treasury has proposed a 30% tax on electricity costs for your operations. 💸 Stay informed and stay ahead of the game!
According to a supplementary budget explainer paper by the Department of the Treasury,
any firm using owned or rented mining rigs would be
“subject to an excise tax equal to 30 percent of the costs of electricity used in digital asset mining.”
Notably, the proposed tax would be implemented next year and phased in gradually
over a period of three years at a rate of 10% a year, reaching the target 30% tax rate by the end of 2026.
Crypto miners would also need to report the amount and type of electricity they use,
as well as the value of that electricity.
This means that even miners who use off-grid electricity for their operations would still need to pay taxes.
