Enhanced ezPaycheck payroll software helps all size businesses adapt to new withholding rules, employer credits, and reporting requirements under the One Big Beautiful Bill Act (OBBBA).

REDMOND, Wash., Feb. 17, 2026 /PRNewswire/ — Following the passage of the One Big Beautiful Bill Act (OBBBA), Halfpricesoft.com has released a comprehensive 2026 update to ezPaycheck payroll software. The legislation introduces significant federal payroll tax changes, including revised income tax withholding tables, adjustments to employer tax credits, updated reporting thresholds, and modifications to certain payroll-related compliance requirements. The latest ezPaycheck update equips small and mid-sized businesses, accountants, and bookkeepers with the tools needed to navigate these changes accurately and efficiently.

Businesses can download and try the updated 2026 version of ezPaycheck today at Halfpricesoft.com to simplify payroll processing and stay compliant with OBBBA requirements.

The OBBBA brings several notable payroll-related updates, including:

  • Updated federal income tax withholding calculations
  • Adjustments to employer-side payroll tax credits and incentives
  • Revised wage reporting requirements and thresholds
  • Enhanced compliance standards for federal payroll tax filings

ezPaycheck has been updated to automatically reflect these changes within payroll calculations and tax form preparation. The software continues to provide an all-in-one solution for paycheck processing, tax calculations, and form printing, helping businesses reduce manual errors and avoid compliance risks during regulatory transitions.

“The One Big Beautiful Bill Act represents a substantial shift in federal payroll tax requirements,” said Dr. Ge, Founder of Halfpricesoft. “Our newest 2026 ezPaycheck update ensures that businesses can manage payroll with confidence, knowing their calculations and reporting processes align with the latest federal standards.”

Usually, tips and overtime pay are fully taxable. Under the new legislation, these may become tax-exempt. Our latest update allows you to:

  • Track “Qualified Overtime” hours separately.
  • Categorize Tip Income for potential tax exemption.
  • Distinguish these from standard income for accurate reporting.

Below see a prepared and detailed guide to help understand these changes.

The Channel Factories We’ve Been Waiting For

The Channel Factories We’ve Been Waiting For

The post The Channel Factories We’ve Been Waiting For appeared on BitcoinEthereumNews.com. Visions of future technology are often prescient about the broad strokes while flubbing the details. The tablets in “2001: A Space Odyssey” do indeed look like iPads, but you never see the astronauts paying for subscriptions or wasting hours on Candy Crush.  Channel factories are one vision that arose early in the history of the Lightning Network to address some challenges that Lightning has faced from the beginning. Despite having grown to become Bitcoin’s most successful layer-2 scaling solution, with instant and low-fee payments, Lightning’s scale is limited by its reliance on payment channels. Although Lightning shifts most transactions off-chain, each payment channel still requires an on-chain transaction to open and (usually) another to close. As adoption grows, pressure on the blockchain grows with it. The need for a more scalable approach to managing channels is clear. Channel factories were supposed to meet this need, but where are they? In 2025, subnetworks are emerging that revive the impetus of channel factories with some new details that vastly increase their potential. They are natively interoperable with Lightning and achieve greater scale by allowing a group of participants to open a shared multisig UTXO and create multiple bilateral channels, which reduces the number of on-chain transactions and improves capital efficiency. Achieving greater scale by reducing complexity, Ark and Spark perform the same function as traditional channel factories with new designs and additional capabilities based on shared UTXOs.  Channel Factories 101 Channel factories have been around since the inception of Lightning. A factory is a multiparty contract where multiple users (not just two, as in a Dryja-Poon channel) cooperatively lock funds in a single multisig UTXO. They can open, close and update channels off-chain without updating the blockchain for each operation. Only when participants leave or the factory dissolves is an on-chain transaction…

IP Hits $11.75, HYPE Climbs to $55, BlockDAG Surpasses Both with $407M Presale Surge!

The post IP Hits $11.75, HYPE Climbs to $55, BlockDAG Surpasses Both with $407M Presale Surge! appeared on BitcoinEthereumNews.com. Crypto News 17 September 2025 | 18:00 Discover why BlockDAG’s upcoming Awakening Testnet launch makes it the best crypto to buy today as Story (IP) price jumps to $11.75 and Hyperliquid hits new highs. Recent crypto market numbers show strength but also some limits. The Story (IP) price jump has been sharp, fueled by big buybacks and speculation, yet critics point out that revenue still lags far behind its valuation. The Hyperliquid (HYPE) price looks solid around the mid-$50s after a new all-time high, but questions remain about sustainability once the hype around USDH proposals cools down. So the obvious question is: why chase coins that are either stretched thin or at risk of retracing when you could back a network that’s already proving itself on the ground? That’s where BlockDAG comes in. While other chains are stuck dealing with validator congestion or outages, BlockDAG’s upcoming Awakening Testnet will be stress-testing its EVM-compatible smart chain with real miners before listing. For anyone looking for the best crypto coin to buy, the choice between waiting on fixes or joining live progress feels like an easy one. BlockDAG: Smart Chain Running Before Launch Ethereum continues to wrestle with gas congestion, and Solana is still known for network freezes, yet BlockDAG is already showing a different picture. Its upcoming Awakening Testnet, set to launch on September 25, isn’t just a demo; it’s a live rollout where the chain’s base protocols are being stress-tested with miners connected globally. EVM compatibility is active, account abstraction is built in, and tools like updated vesting contracts and Stratum integration are already functional. Instead of waiting for fixes like other networks, BlockDAG is proving its infrastructure in real time. What makes this even more important is that the technology is operational before the coin even hits exchanges. That…
