Guidance from the Internal Revenue Service appeared to offer additional regulatory clarity for crypto staking through exchange-traded products. The US Internal Revenue Service (IRS), the country’s tax-collection bureau under the Department of the Treasury, has updated its guidance for cryptocurrency exchange-traded products (ETPs) to include a safe harbor for trusts to stake digital assets. Treasury Secretary Scott Bessent wrote in a Monday X post that the agencies released guidance offering crypto ETPs "a clear path to stake digital assets and share staking rewards with their retail investors.” According to the guidance available on the IRS website, government agencies would allow crypto trusts to participate in staking, provided they are traded on a national securities exchange, hold only cash and “units of a single type of digital asset,” held by a custodian, and mitigate specific risks to investors.

Money was anonymous for thousands of years until the recent experiment in financial surveillance. Privacy-preserving crypto offers a path back to normalcy. Opinion by: Carter Feldman, CEO of Psy For thousands of years, money changed hands in private. A bronze coin passed from merchant to customer, leaving no record of the transaction. No government official knew what you bought or from whom. No bank tracked your spending habits. This wasn’t a bug in the system — it was how money worked. Even as banking systems developed, privacy remained the default. When you paid for a beer with a banknote issued by an institution like the Bank of England, there was no compulsion for the tavern to perform real ID verification or Know Your Customer (KYC).
