Verbod op Bitcoin? Strategie van Saylor, stablecoins en boekhoudregels dat en meer in Hup Bitcoin #239Welkom bij een nieuwe Hup Bitcoin. Ja, daar zijn we weer met vol nieuws.We beginnen in onze hoofdstad: Amsterdam. Burgemeester Femke Halsema wil – zo lijkt het althans – een verbod op cryptobetalingen. In een ingezonden brandbrief aan het ministerie, medeondertekend door politiechef Peter Holla en hoofdofficier René de Beukelaar, wordt crypto genoemd als hulpmiddel voor criminelen.Denk aan witwassen, wapenhandel en cybercrime. Maar hoe serieus moeten we die dreiging nemen? En is het terecht dat crypto daar weer als zondebok wordt aangewezen?We plaatsen het in context: van bulletproof hosting tot crimineel gebruik van datacenters – inclusief het schokkende cijfer dat 60% van het Europese kindermisbruikmateriaal wordt gehost in Nederland. Maar: is dat allemaal betaald met Bitcoin? Of is cash nog altijd king onder criminelen?
How does a profession revitalize itself when salaries haven't budged since 2007? In this episode, Blake and David examine the shocking reality that Big Four audit associates in Chicago earn the same salary range today as they did nearly two decades ago. They also explore why accounting's value proposition has stagnated in a world where financial statements fail to capture what truly matters to modern investors, and you'll hear their take on the IRS's plan to cut 50% of its workforce, Social Security's future, and the economic impact of tariffs—including a surprising clip from Ronald Reagan himself. Plus, learn how over 30 states are now advancing legislation to eliminate the 150-hour rule that has long been blamed for declining CPA candidates.SponsorsOnPay - http://accountingpodcast.promo/onpayBluevine - http://accountingpodcast.promo/bluevine (Bluevine is a financial technology company, not a bank.

Deze week ging het veel over DAC8. Deze richtlijn verplicht cryptobedrijven, waaronder Nederlandse, om transacties en eigendommen nauwgezet te rapporteren aan belastingautoriteiten. De regels worden vanaf 2026 van kracht in Nederland en vragen de nodige voorbereidingen. Mauro Halve, hoofd Compliance bij AMDAX, vertelt hoe de wet werkt en of dit nu veel werk is. Het is ook maar de vraag of DAC8 écht een oplossing is voor belastingontduiking, want dat is ook op dit moment al een héél slecht idee, zeker op Nederlandse exchanges. Naast DAC8 komen er nog andere grote veranderingen aan, waaronder de Europese cryptowet MICAR, transactieregels via TFR en de cyberweerbaarheidsnormen onder DORA. Mauro licht toe hoe deze regels vanaf 2025 de sector verder professionaliseren. Tegelijkertijd maakt de Nederlandse cryptosector zich zorgen over de hoge toezichtskosten, die relatief fors zijn vergeleken met andere Europese lidstaten. Dit zou volgens Mauro Nederlandse bedrijven in een nadelige concurrentiepositie kunnen brengen. In de prijsanalyse bespreken we een nieuwe stijging van Bitcoin, die de grens van 107.000 dollar doorbrak. Daarbij lijkt Bitcoin zich zeker nog niet in een manische fase te bevinden, want dagelijks worden er ook zo'n 30.0000 Bitcoin verkocht. Tot slot: Microstrategy, het bedrijf van Michael Saylor, is officieel opgenomen in de NASDAQ-100 index. Deze mijlpaal onderstreept niet alleen de sterke prestaties van het aandeel, maar ook de groeiende acceptatie van Bitcoin als strategische asset. Microstrategy heeft zichzelf stevig op de kaart gezet met zijn Bitcoin-inkoopstrategie, waardoor het aandeel zelfs beter presteert dan techgigant Nvidia. Ook was er aandacht voor een recente aanpassing in de Amerikaanse FASB-accountingregels, die de boekhoudkundige behandeling van Bitcoin gunstiger maakt. Bert legt uit hoe deze verandering niet alleen goed nieuws is voor bedrijven als Microstrategy, maar ook bredere implicaties heeft voor de institutionele adoptie van Bitcoin.

BNY Mellon has just been approved to custody Bitcoin, marking a major milestone for the future of Bitcoin. Michael Saylor predicted that for Bitcoin to reach $5M per coin, three key things needed to happen: 1 Approval of a Bitcoin ETF (Done) 2 Changes in FASB accounting rules (Done) 3 Banks gaining the ability to custody Bitcoin (BNY Mellon just achieved this!) With these milestones now met, the path to a $5M Bitcoin seems clearer than ever.
