The Internal Revenue Service (IRS) is taking steps to ensure that NFTs are taxed similarly to other collectible items. This move by the IRS follows the recent surge in the popularity of NFTs since they have gained traction in various industries, such as art, music, and sports, and have been sold for millions of dollars
The IRS has proposed that NFTs be treated as collectibles for tax purposes and has submitted the proposal for public review and comment. The agency seeks to set up a clear tax framework for these digital assets by doing so. If the proposal is implemented, NFTs would be subject to the same tax rates as other collectibles, such as coins, stamps, and art
Currently, collectibles are taxed at a maximum rate of 28%, regardless of the taxpayer’s income level. If the proposition is accepted, NFT holders will be subject to capital gains tax when they sell their digital assets. Moreover, they would be required to report any income earned from NFT transactions on their tax returns
