SJRES 3 is a congressional resolution that would cancel an IRS rule finalized in late 2024. That rule required brokers dealing in digital assets, including cryptocurrency, to report gross proceeds from customer sales to the IRS. If passed by both chambers and signed into law, the resolution would eliminate that requirement and bar the IRS from issuing a substantially similar rule without new direction from Congress.
This affects crypto exchanges, digital asset trading platforms, and everyday people who buy or sell cryptocurrency. Traditional-style brokers in the digital asset space would be directly subject to, or relieved of, the reporting requirement depending on the outcome.
If the resolution succeeds, digital asset brokers would not be required to send customer transaction data to the IRS under this regulation. If the IRS rule remains in place, the agency would have more information available to verify whether taxpayers are accurately reporting cryptocurrency gains on their returns.
