This source discusses the GENIUS Act, a bill recently advanced by the US Senate aiming to regulate certain aspects of cryptocurrency, specifically stablecoins. The legislation seeks to implement consumer protections by requiring stablecoin issuers to maintain asset reserves and provide repayment priority in case of bankruptcy. While supporters view the bill as a necessary step for establishing industry standards and enabling stablecoins to become more mainstream, critics argue that it offers weak regulations and fails to adequately address potential conflicts of interest, such as those highlighted by former President Trump's involvement in stablecoin ventures. The bill's provisions regarding reserve requirements and anti-money laundering measures are highlighted as key components.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

We Dive Into: Bitcoin Declared Cash in Aussie Court Ruling

A recent ruling by a Victorian magistrate in Australia has potentially significant implications for the taxation of Bitcoin transactions. During a theft case involving a former police officer, the judge determined that Bitcoin should be treated similarly to Australian dollars, classifying it as property but not subject to capital gains tax. This contrasts with the Australian Taxation Office's long-standing position, which has treated Bitcoin as a capital gains asset since 2014. If this ruling is upheld on appeal, which is not expected until late 2025, it could lead to substantial tax refunds for Bitcoin holders who paid CGT after 2019. The defence team is appealing the ruling that Bitcoin is property at all, arguing it is simply information.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

The US is considering strategies to increase its Bitcoin reserves without using taxpayer money.

Play Episode Listen Later Mar 8, 2025 12:56


A recent executive order from President Trump aiming to establish a strategic Bitcoin reserve has failed to bolster the cryptocurrency market. Bitcoin's value experienced a drop following the announcement due to the absence of explicit government plans to actively purchase the digital asset. The proposed reserve, intended to function like a 'digital Fort Knox', would be capitalised through forfeited assets from criminal or civil proceedings, meaning there would be no expense to taxpayers. Analysts have expressed disappointment, noting the lack of new Bitcoin acquisitions unless achieved in a revenue-neutral way. The US government currently holds approximately 200,000 Bitcoin, and the executive order seeks a full audit of federal digital asset holdings, as well as creating a separate stockpile of other digital assets.

President Trump announced a plan to include several cryptocurrencies in the US's "Crypto Strategic Reserve," moving beyond a Bitcoin-only approach. Bitcoin's market dominance subsequently dipped below 50% as altcoins like Cardano, XRP, Solana, and Ether experienced significant gains. This decision drew criticism from Bitcoin proponents who argued that the reserve should focus solely on Bitcoin, citing its superior utility as "digital gold." Bitcoin critics are even confused, noting that if one does not like Bitcoin, at least a Bitcoin-only reserve has a rationale. The move surprised some experts who viewed Bitcoin as the only logical choice for a national strategic reserve. Trump will host a White House Crypto Summit to further discuss regulatory policies and stablecoin oversight, following weeks of evaluation by his Working Group on Digital Assets.

Iranian authorities are escalating their crackdown on cryptocurrencies due to the plummeting value of the rial and ongoing economic turmoil. The Central Bank of Iran (CBI) has blocked rial payments on crypto exchanges, restricting Iranians' access to Bitcoin and other digital currencies. These measures aim to curb the outflow of the national currency, though they are criticised as unethical and biased. The CBI also seeks increased control over the crypto market, including access to user data and trading limits, under the guise of "minimising risks".

These include companies with real estate portfolios, building construction firms, professional advisors like architects and engineers, and technology firms, especially in prop-tech. Cox recounted his bold move into the Indian market in 2000, drawn by growth potential as his consultancy hit a glass ceiling in Australia. Initially, he explored Southeast Asia, but India emerged as the target due to specific invitations. His company was the only one from a six-company consortium to invest in India, a decision driven by opportunity and relationships. Despite efforts, Australian businesses have shown reluctance to enter India due to concerns about corruption, safety, and profit repatriation. Cox emphasized showing companies the opportunity by facilitating meetings with potential clients, staff, and suppliers to ease doubts. He addressed Australia's limited foreign direct investment (FDI) in India compared to other countries like the US, UK, and Germany. He cited expectations for easy market entry and lack of perseverance as barriers. However, he shared a success story where a one-week exploratory mission in India resulted in four tangible opportunities for Australian companies. Cox highlighted India's real estate sector, expected to grow from $300 billion to $1 trillion by 2029, supporting 70 million jobs. He believes Australian investors should pay more attention to this booming sector. While FDI in India is regulated, it is not as restrictive as other markets, allowing companies to own commercial and residential property.
