It is believed the blockchain and cryptocurrency commission received a proposed general fund of $17,192 for 2025 and 2026, added Cointelegraph.

“No license under this chapter shall be required of any person engaging in-home digital asset 37 mining, digital asset mining, or digital asset mining business activities, as those terms are defined in § 38 15.2-2288.9, Senator Saddam Azlan Salim, proposed.

This exclusion is expected to be applied to gains derived from using digital assets to purchase goods or services. Furthermore, the bill incentivises the use of cryptocurrencies for everyday transactions through  tax benefits, concluded Cointelegraph.
