PANews reported on October 1st that according to Crypto In America, the U.S. Treasury Department is preparing to formally relax a proposed rule that would have imposed a 15% tax on unrealized Bitcoin gains held by companies such as MicroStrategy under the Corporate Alternative Minimum Tax (CAMT) Act. The CAMT Act requires large corporations to pay a minimum tax on their reported income. Under current accounting rules, companies are required to mark their cryptocurrency holdings to market value, meaning their paper profits (unrealized gains) will be taxed even if they don't sell them. Previously, companies such as MicroStrategy and Coinbase wrote to the Treasury Department, arguing that taxing unrealized gains on digital assets is unfair and would force U.S. companies to sell assets to pay taxes, putting them at a disadvantage in global competition.PANews reported on October 1st that according to Crypto In America, the U.S. Treasury Department is preparing to formally relax a proposed rule that would have imposed a 15% tax on unrealized Bitcoin gains held by companies such as MicroStrategy under the Corporate Alternative Minimum Tax (CAMT) Act.

The US Treasury Department plans to relax corporate crypto tax rules, and MicroStrategy and others may be exempt from paying billions of unrealized gains taxes.

With its US government seal of approval in hand, Polymarket is reportedly raising capital at a valuation of $9 billion — a reflection of the growing belief that prediction markets will be used for much more than betting on elections once every four years. Instead, proponents say prediction markets can provide a real service to the world by providing it with better information about nearly everything. I think they might, too — but only if insiders are free to participate. Yesterday, for example, Polymarket announced new betting markets on company earnings reports, with a promise that it would improve the information that investors have to work with.  Instead of waiting three months to find out how a company is faring, investors could simply watch the odds on Polymarket.  If the probability of an earnings beat is rising, for example, investors would know at a glance that things are going well. But that will only happen if enough of the people betting actually know how things are going.
