The US Senate Finance Committee will hold a hearing Wednesday on cryptocurrency taxation, a day after the Treasury Department and Internal Revenue Service (IRS) issued interim guidance easing corporate crypto tax rules. The Treasury and IRS on Tuesday issued interim guidance aimed at easing compliance under the Corporate Alternative Minimum Tax (CAMT), including for companies operating in the digital assets sector. Signed into law under former President Joe Biden as part of the Inflation Reduction Act of 2022, CAMT imposes a 15% minimum tax on the financial statement income of large corporations.

It particularly details amendments to Adjusted Financial Statement Income (AFSI), allowing digital asset companies to exclude unrealized gains and losses on digital assets held as fair value assets from CAMT income.
