coindesk.com2 min read

Summary from the TLDR Crypto newsletter

Two senior IRS officials specializing in crypto, Seth Wilks and Raj Mukherjee, have resigned after just over a year. They accepted voluntary buyouts under a federal downsizing initiative linked to the Trump administration's DOGE program. Both previously worked in the crypto industry and played a central role in shaping IRS policy on digital asset taxation, including updates to the 1099-DA tax form and the development of the now-overturned DeFi broker rule.
