On January 3rd, some provisions of the infrastructure bill signed by US President Biden have taken effect, including the requirement for many digital asset transactions worth more than $10,000 to be reported to the US Internal Revenue Service (IRS), as reported by Cointelegraph.

This bipartisan infrastructure bill, passed by Congress and signed by President Biden in 2021, expands the requirements for brokers, requiring many cryptocurrency trading platforms and custodians to report cryptocurrency transactions exceeding $10,000 to the IRS. After the bill was passed, many lawmakers suggested additional legislation to "fix" reporting requirements, claiming that the information brokers need to collect will be difficult or impossible to collect.

The bill requires cryptocurrency brokers to report personal information on transactions to the IRS within 15 days, with the aim of reducing the US tax gap.
