2️⃣ IRS Calls Crypto Staking Taxable in Response to Legal Challenge ❓
#IRSReporting
The United States Internal Revenue Service (IRS) has reportedly reiterated its position that rewards from crypto staking activities do not constitute new property. The IRS stated that staking rewards become taxable as soon as they are generated as block rewards. Notably, this position comes as the IRS opposes a second lawsuit brought by Joshua Jarrett and his wife, Jessica Jarrett who sought to defer taxes until rewards are sold or exchanged. The IRS cited its 2023 guidance, which claims block rewards are classified as “income” from the moment they are created, with tax based on the estimated market value of the tokens at the time.

3️⃣ Crypto.com Launches Polymarket-Style Sports Prediction Market In The US ‼️

5️⃣ FBI, Japan Expose North Korea’s $305M DMM Exchange Hack Details 🔍
#FBIInvestigation
The US Federal Bureau of Investigation (FBI), the Department of Defense Cyber Crime Center (DC3) and the National Police Agency of Japan (NPA) have reportedly published a report that reveals how malicious actors stole over $300 million from the Japanese crypto exchange DMM in May. The report claims the theft is linked to threat activities by the North Korea-affiliated group TraderTraitor. The FBI stated that the group masqueraded as a recruiter on LinkedIn in March. It used this fake identity to compromise an employee at the Japan-based crypto wallet company Ginco. This allowed the hacker to gain access to Ginco’s communications system. The agency said the hackers “likely used this access to manipulate a legitimate transaction request by a DMM employee.”
