IRS "Broker" Rule Change with Zack Shapiro

Zack Shapiro is Head of Policy at the Bitcoin Policy Institute and the Managing Partner at his law firm, Rains. Zack joins us today to discuss a final regulation implementation by the IRS which would redefine the category of "brokers" to include non-custodial platforms. This rule subjects developers of these platforms to stringent reporting requirements which would undermine the peer-to-peer nature of their tools. We break down what the rule is and what impacts it would have, if it goes unchallenged.
