PANews reported on November 11th that, according to The Block, the IRS has released new guidance establishing a safe harbor for staking digital assets in exchange-traded products (ETPs). Cryptocurrency proponents say this changes the way traditional finance is taxed. On Monday, U.S. Treasury Secretary Scott Bessent announced the news on the X platform, stating that the guidance provides a clear path for staking digital assets in ETPs, sharing rewards with retail investors, increasing investor returns, driving innovation, and helping the U.S. maintain its leading position in the digital asset and blockchain fields. The IRS stated that they received questions regarding whether staking would render a trust "unfair to federal income tax regulations," and the newly released 18-page guidance includes safe harbor provisions and requirements. Bill Hughes, senior legal counsel at Consensys, stated that trusts meeting certain conditions (such as holding only one digital asset and cash, using qualified custodians, etc.) can stake cryptocurrency on permissionless proof-of-stake networks. This safe harbor provides clear guidance for institutions and accelerates the adoption of proof-of-stake blockchains in the mainstream market.PANews reported on November 11th that, according to The Block, the IRS has released new guidance establishing a safe harbor for staking digital assets in exchange-traded products (ETPs).

Bitcoin and Ethereum are trading at new ATHs, while institutional interest in blockchain adoption is accelerating at an unprecedented pace.

Once underestimated, the XRP Ledger has evolved into a powerful blockchain ecosystem, boasting ultra-fast settlement speeds, near-zero fees, growing enterprise integrations, and over 300% growth for last year.

DeXRP is preparing to launch trading with liquidity support and announced tier-one partnerships.

Metaplanet Forms Bitcoin-Focused Subsidiaries in Japan and the U.S.
The post Metaplanet Forms Bitcoin-Focused Subsidiaries in Japan and the U.S. appeared on BitcoinEthereumNews.com. Metaplanet (3350), the largest bitcoin BTC$116,183.54 treasury company in Japan, said it established two subsidiaries — one in Japan and one in the U.S. — and bought the bitcoin.jp domain name as it strengthens its commitment to the largest cryptocurrency. Bitcoin Japan Inc., will be based in Tokyo and manage a suite of bitcoin-linked media, conferences and online platforms, including the internet domain and Bitcoin Magazine Japan. The U.S. unit, Metaplanet Income Corp., will be based in Miami and focus on generating income from bitcoin-related financial products, including derivatives, the company said in a post on X. Metaplanet noted it launched a bitcoin income generation business in the last quarter of 2024 and aims to further scale these operations through the new subsidiary. Both the wholly owned subsidiaries are led in part by Metaplanet CEO Simon Gerovich. Earlier this month, the firm brought its bitcoin holdings to over 20,000 BTC. It’s currently the world’s sixth-largest bitcoin treasury company, with 20,136 BTC in its balance sheet, according to BitcoinTreasuries data. The leading firm, Strategy (MSTR), has 638,985 BTC. The subsidiaries are being established shortly after the company announced plans to raise a net 204.1 billion yen ($1.4 billion) in an international share sale to bolster its BTC holdings. Metaplanet stock dropped 1.16% on Wednesday. Source: https://www.coindesk.com/business/2025/09/17/metaplanet-sets-up-u-s-japan-subsidiaries-buys-bitcoin-jp-domain-name
