A new U.S. legislative proposal has emerged that could reshape Bitcoin's role in the American financial system. The bill would permit American taxpayers to settle federal taxes using Bitcoin, while simultaneously eliminating capital gains taxes on BTC transactions. This represents a potential watershed moment for cryptocurrency adoption at the policy level. If enacted, such measures could significantly alter the tax incentive structure surrounding Bitcoin holdings and accelerate institutional acceptance of digital assets within the traditional financial framework.

Listen up, paying taxes with BTC? If that really happens, I'll go all in. The key is the tax exemption part.

Wait, paying taxes with Bitcoin? If that really happens, I'll go all in directly. Tax exemption would be ridiculous.
