Republicans in Congress may drop mining and staking tax provisions

  • H.R. 9175 proposes moving the tax event to the sale of mining and staking rewards
  • Republicans want to secure support from Democrat Steven Horsford
  • Democrats at a June 9, 2026 hearing called the deferral unequal treatment
  • A vote on the bill is scheduled for September 16, 2026
Why it matters: Removing the provisions would keep rewards taxed at receipt, increasing pressure on miners and stakers with thin margins.
