The White House has confirmed that President Donald Trump supports a tax exemption for small Bitcoin and crypto payments. The move could boost daily usage of digital assets across the United States.
Toward crypto-friendly regulation
According to officials, the plan would eliminate capital gains tax reporting for small, routine crypto transactions. This could apply to purchases like coffee, groceries or low-value transfers. The goal is to treat minor crypto payments like cash, making adoption easier and regulation smarter.
This announcement marks a clear shift in the administration’s stance on digital assets. It follows recent moves in Congress and the Republican platform to position the US as a leader in crypto innovation.
Retail adoption could accelerate
Analysts say the exemption could unlock real-world use cases for Bitcoin (BTC), USDC and Lightning-based micropayments. By removing the tax burden from everyday use, crypto may finally gain traction as a practical payment method.
The proposal may require IRS rule changes and support from lawmakers. Still, the momentum is building as the US tries to catch up with global crypto policy shifts.
