#密码资产动态追踪 The small Bitcoin transaction tax exemption policy promoted by the U.S. White House has recently sparked quite a bit of discussion. Under the current proposal, everyday payments made with $BTC (such as buying coffee or groceries) might not be subject to capital gains tax — sounds good, but the specific thresholds are still being debated.
The administration advocates setting the limit at under $600, while the Senate team is pushing for a $300 threshold. A seemingly small difference in numbers actually reflects a trade-off between cost and practicality. Whether this policy can be finalized depends on the voting results in Congress.
If it is implemented, it could indeed improve the friendliness of Bitcoin for daily payments and perhaps stimulate trading activity. However, it is still in the legislative stage, so don’t be swayed by short-term hype — maintaining rational judgment is more important. Clarification of the policy will definitely be a positive for the market, but no one can predict the timing.

600 or 300, honestly it's all nonsense. How many people actually use BTC to buy groceries?

honestly? the $600 vs $300 threshold debate is just theater... statistically speaking, most coffee transactions are what, $5-$8? the delta doesn't matter empirically. what actually matters is whether they ever get past the committee phase, which given congressional gridlock is like a 15% probability at best tbh

600 or 300, honestly it's all talk. How long will it really take to be implemented?

600 or 300, both are just pie in the sky for retail investors. How many people can actually use BTC to buy groceries?
