Russian President Vladimir Putin officially signs digital currency tax law
Russian President Vladimir Putin has signed a law regulating the taxation of digital currencies. According to the law, digital currencies are recognized as property. This also applies to currencies used for foreign trade payments within the experimental legal framework (EPR) in the field of digital innovation. Mining and sales of digital currencies are exempt from value-added tax. Operators of mining infrastructure must report to the tax authorities issuing cryptocurrencies for using their services. Failure to submit such information on time may result in a fine of 40,000 rubles. In terms of personal income tax, digital currencies obtained through mining will be classified as physical income (usually used when goods or services are paid for instead of currency). The value of the income currency will be determined based on market quotes. Such income will be subject to progressive taxation, taking into account tax deductions for mining costs. At the same time, the acquisition, sale or other circulation of digital currencies will be subject to two-stage personal income tax rates (13% for income up to 2.4 million rubles, and 15% for income exceeding this amount). They will be included in the same tax base as securities, bank deposits, and other sources of transaction income. As for corporate income tax, digital currency mining will be subject to the standard tax rate (25% from 2025 onwards). -

Pennsylvania Passes "Bitcoin Rights" Bill and Considers Strategic Bitcoin Reserve Amid Criticism and Potential Economic Benefits
Pennsylvania has passed the "Bitcoin Rights" bill, which protects the rights of individuals and businesses to self-custody digital assets, operate blockchain nodes, and conduct transactions without interference from restrictive municipal ordinances. This move establishes Pennsylvania as a leader in digital asset regulation and demonstrates its commitment to fostering innovation in the sector while addressing issues such as economic empowerment and financial inclusion. Additionally, two Republican Representatives have introduced the Strategic Bitcoin Reserve Act, which would allow the state treasurer to allocate up to 10% of Pennsylvania's funds into bitcoin and crypto-based exchange-traded products. However, critics have raised concerns about the risks of holding bitcoin in government reserves, including extreme price volatility and security vulnerabilities, as well as environmental concerns related to bitcoin mining's energy consumption. Despite this, Pennsylvania's proactive approach to fostering a crypto-friendly environment positions the state as a model for equitable digital asset adoption and underscores the growing role of state governments in shaping the future of the digital economy. -

EU regulators set out guidelines on restrictions for cryptocurrency providers
the European Banking Authority (EBA) is the European regulatory agency responsible for addressing weaknesses in the European banking industry. It has issued two sets of guidelines, including specific guidelines for payment service providers (PSPs) and cryptocurrency asset service providers (CASPs). On November 14th, EBA released guidelines that specify the measures that PSPs and CASPs must take when transferring funds or cryptocurrency to comply with EU and national restrictive measures. According to EBA, these guidelines ensure the implementation of EU and national sanctions. EBA believes that weaknesses in control, internal policies, and procedures may pose legal and reputational risks to financial institutions (including PSPs and CASPs). In addition, weak links in these areas for financial institutions may also "weaken" the effectiveness of the EU's restrictive measures system. The European Banking Authority emphasizes that this may lead to rule evasion, thereby affecting the stability of the EU's financial ecosystem. According to ECA, these guidelines will apply from December 30, 2025. -

UK House of Lords backs Digital Asset Property Bill
members of the UK House of Lords expressed support for the country's digital asset property bill during a second reading session on Wednesday. The House of Lords Committee generally believes that the bill will provide more clarity on how the legal system treats cryptocurrencies and may mark another step forward for the UK in paving the way for domestic cryptocurrency use. The bill was drafted by the independent statutory body, the Law Commission, and was launched in the UK in September. The bill adds a new "property" category within the scope of property to help resolve legal disputes involving cryptocurrencies. The bill will not only help judges in criminal proceedings involving cryptocurrency theft due to fraud or hacking, but will also help divide marital property. -
