Securities, M&A & Corporate Governance Litigation

Crypto Tax Update: New Tax Rules on the Horizon?

On July 30, President Trump’s Working Group on Digital Assets released its comprehensive “Strengthening American Leadership in Digital Financial Technology” report (the Report). The 160-plus-page report sets forth a series of recommendations seeking to “ensure crypto becomes a hallmark of the new American Golden Age” while outlining a proposed framework for regulating digital assets. A key section of the Report focuses on the taxation of digital assets and sets forth proposals on the modernization of the tax framework to better align with the realities of the digital asset ecosystem. The proposals address a range of substantive tax issues, including the classification of digital assets for tax purposes, the timing and character of income from mining and staking activities, and the tax treatment of stablecoins, and also recommends updates to taxpayer and third-party reporting requirements.

Survey of State Transaction Notification Requirements (Baby HSR)

Site Content

What Are Baby HSR Laws?

“Baby HSR” or “mini HSR” laws refer to state-level premerger notification and reporting requirements that resemble the federal Hart-Scott-Rodino Act but tend to apply to smaller transactions valued below the federal notification thresholds. These laws, often focused on specific industries like healthcare, aim to enhance state-level antitrust oversight by requiring companies to notify state authorities of mergers or acquisitions that could impact local competition. Filing obligations, timing, and fees vary by state, with some requiring detailed disclosures about the transaction’s competitive impact within the state. State authorities can investigate, challenge, or impose conditions on transactions even if they are cleared federally. Winston’s Baby HSR survey provides buyers and sellers with a resource to quickly start assessing which states may have premerger notification requirements that impact their transactions....Read more
