Oklahoma Passes Bill Boosting Bitcoin Mining
House Bill 1600 explicitly targets the commercial mining of digital assets, proposing tax-exempt status for selling essential mining machinery and equipment.
This includes servers, computers, software, electricity, cabling, and transformers. The bill defines commercial mining as using blockchain technology to mine digital assets at a colocation facility.
This legislative effort is part of a broader move to foster a crypto-friendly environment in the state, attracting more digital asset operations.
Earlier legislative actions in Oklahoma have set a precedent for favorable crypto regulations. The state was the first in the U.S. to pass a bill safeguarding the fundamental rights of Bitcoin users, allowing for self-custody and the use of crypto assets in transactions without additional taxation.
This positions digital assets on par with traditional legal tender regarding tax treatment and underscores the state’s intention to streamline the use of cryptocurrencies in everyday transactions.
The implications of these legislative moves are far-reaching and aimed at fostering a more inclusive financial environment within Oklahoma.
The state seeks to attract investment and demonstrate readiness to integrate digital assets into day-to-day activities by eliminating the crypto tax on mining and BTC
transactions.
“The great state of Oklahoma isn’t saying that we’re for, we’re against, or any of the above; we’re saying this is an entity, this is a commodity, this is something that Oklahomans are interested in owning,” Rep. Hill added.
