IRS 1099-DA crypto reporting requirements take effect for the first time on Tax Day 2026, requiring every American who sold or traded digital assets in 2025 to account for those transactions, while Treasury reports 53 million filers already claimed new Trump administration exemptions. Summary Form 1099-DA is now the IRS’s mandatory reporting form for 2025 digital asset transactions filed by brokers, though basis reporting remains voluntary for this first year, creating a gap crypto holders must bridge themselves. Treasury says 53 million Americans used new Trump-era exemptions including no tax on tips and overtime, car loan interest deductions, and Trump Accounts for children’s savings, with average refunds rising 11% to $3,462. IRS CEO Frank Bisignano testified to the Senate Finance Committee on Tax Day touting the Republican tax law’s implementation while Democrats focused on IRS data-sharing agreements with ICE. IRS 1099-DA crypto obligations are real and unavoidable for the first time this filing season. The IRS’s first dedicated digital asset reporting form, a simplified version of an earlier draft that dropped requirements for wallet addresses and transaction IDs, went into mandatory use for brokers covering all 2025 digital asset transactions. But 53 million Americans are also sitting down today to take advantage of a completely different set of tax changes, the Trump-era exemptions that have reshaped this year’s filing season. What Crypto Holders Must Know Today For 2025 transactions, custodial brokers were required to send Form 1099-DA covering gross proceeds by February 17, 2026. The catch: basis reporting is voluntary for 2025. That means most 1099-DA forms do not include cost basis, and the IRS has been explicit: “taxpayers will have to calculate basis to determine their gain or loss.” Crypto holders who treat their 1099-DA as a complete document

Erik Zhang announces temporary committee to assume Neo Foundation functions 
Erik Zhang, Neo co-founder and core developer, announced on April 14 that he is forming a temporary emergency committee with core developers and community leaders to take over Neo Foundation operations, citing NF dysfunction, unpaid staff and community members, and eight months of suspended personal salary.

The announcement marks an escalation in an ongoing governance dispute between Zhang and fellow co-founder Da Hongfei, which became public in late December 2025. It comes just days after both founders published competing governance reform proposals on GitHub.

Emergency action and claims of dysfunction
Zhang stated that the NF “is now, in effect, in a state of dysfunction,” with most operational departments having “already begun to shut down.” He said community members and staff have gone without owed funding “for an extended period,” and that his own salary has been suspended for eight months.

In the announcement, Zhang cited his role as “founder of $NEO, a core developer, and an NF Board Member,” and framed the committee as a necessary intervention

Hormuz oil bitcoin dynamics shifted Tuesday as the Rich Starry, a Chinese-owned, U.S.-sanctioned tanker, slipped through the Strait of Hormuz in the first known breach of the U.S. naval blockade, sending WTI crude to $90.4 a barrel on April 15. Summary The Rich Starry, owned by Shanghai Xuanrun Shipping, passed through the Strait carrying 250,000 barrels of methanol loaded at the UAE port of Hamriyah, not an Iranian port. WTI crude fell 0.88% to $90.4 per barrel on Wednesday as the crossing and diplomatic signals eased immediate supply pressure. Bitcoin has closely tracked oil prices since the conflict began in February, and crude holding below $95 could support BTC breaking above the $76,000 resistance it has failed three times. Hormuz oil bitcoin markets have a new variable to price in. The Rich Starry crossed the Strait on Tuesday carrying methanol loaded at a UAE commercial port, not from an Iranian facility. That technical distinction likely explains why no confrontation occurred. U.S. Central Command had clarified that its blockade covers vessels to and from Iranian ports only. “CENTCOM forces will not impede freedom of navigation for vessels transiting the Strait of Hormuz to and from non-Iranian ports,” the command said in a statement. WTI crude sits at $90.4 a barrel as of Wednesday morning, down sharply from the $103 spike logged when the blockade was first announced. That matters directly for bitcoin. What the Rich Starry’s Crossing Changes The blockade has been tested from its opening hours. Maritime intelligence firm Windward identified at least two vessels transiting the Strait in the first 24 hours of enforcement. The Rich Starry’s sanctioned status, flying a Malawi flag despite being Hong Kong-registered, using a spoofed AIS transponder, and departing UAE anchorage is the clearest signal yet that the shadow fleet built to circumvent sanctions

Solana Price Prediction: Critical Support Test Could Decide 300%-400% Rally


Solana sits between two very different chart signals right now. While one analyst sees short term weakness toward support, another says the long term setup could still open the door to a major upside move.

Solana Rejection Near $87.87 Keeps Focus on $78.76 to $81.65 Support

Solana failed to hold gains near a key upside target, and that rejection shifted attention back to a lower support zone, according to chart analysis shared by More Crypto Online on X.

The analyst said $SOL nearly reached the $87.87 target area before sellers pushed the price lower. As a result, the move higher still looks corrective rather than a strong trend reversal. In Elliott Wave terms, that means the bounce has not yet shown the kind of strength that would confirm a broader breakout.



The 1 hour chart showed $SOL trading near $83.46 after the rejection. It also marked resistance near the recent high and identified a support region between $78.76 and $81.65. That area now stands out as the next key zone for price action.

More Crypto Online added that the rise into resistance did not form a clear five wave move. Therefore, the analyst said the structure remains weak and still leaves room for further downside or a deeper wave two correction before any stronger upside attempt can develop.

The chart also showed short term micro support above the broader support band. Even so, the wider focus remains on whether $SOL can hold the $78.76 to $81.65 region. If that area fails, the bearish case in the current setup would likely grow stronger.

At the same time, the chart showed that the recent bounce stopped below the next higher resistance zone near $87.87 to $89.75. That means bulls did not reclaim the upper level needed to shift the short term structure into a clearer bullish trend.

For now, the analysis suggests Sola

ASML Holding N.V. lifted its full-year 2026 revenue forecast after the Dutch semiconductor equipment giant surpassed first-quarter profit and sales expectations. The results were fueled by accelerating AI-driven chip demand, though tightening export restrictions on China continue to weigh on the company's longer-term outlook.Shares edged up roughly 1% following the announcement. ASML now projects 2026 net sales between €36 billion and €40 billion, raised from the previous range of €34 billion to €39 billion. The new guidance straddles the €37.68 billion analyst consensus. For the second quarter, the company forecasts revenue of €8.4 billion to €9 billion, with a midpoint slightly below the €9.04 billion market estimate.First-quarter net income came in at €2.76 billion, topping the €2.54 billion consensus estimate, while total net sales reached €8.77 billion against an expected €8.5 billion. Gross margin improved to 53%, up from 52.2% in the prior quarter, with basic earnings per share at €7.15.CEO Christophe Fouquet credited the semiconductor industry's strengthening growth trajectory to sustained AI infrastructure investment, noting that chip demand is outpacing supply and prompting customers to fast-track capacity expansion plans. Memory chips made up 51% of new tool sales in the quarter, with South Korean chipmakers Samsung and SK Hynix driving much of that growth.South Korea represented 45% of quarterly sales, followed by Taiwan at 23%. Meanwhile, China's share dropped to 19% from 36% in the previous quarter amid escalating export control pressures. Proposed U.S. legislation targeting ASML's deep ultraviolet machines could further restrict Chinese sales.Wall Street analysts remain split — Jefferies flagged potential valuation headwinds, while BofA Securities maintained a buy rating citing rising EUV capacity and improving earnings potential heading into

Solana Policy Institute-backed PAC spends millions to jam Sherrod Brown's Senate run


A conservative U.S. political action committee backed by the Solana Policy Institute — the Sentinel Action Fund — has committed to a massive advertising spend on the political opponent of former Senator Sherrod Brown, a Democrat and prominent crypto skeptic who is trying to return to Washington in this year's Ohio Senate election.

Sentinel and its affiliated nonprofit, Right Vote, committed $8 million to Jon Husted, the Republican named to fill Vice President JD Vance's seat, according to a Wednesday statement. The committee accused his opponent, Brown, who had been the chairman of the Senate Banking Committee prior to losing his seat in 2024, of having "stood in the way of pro-innovation policies when it comes to digital assets."

The super PAC is partially funded by the Solana Institute and crypto venture firm Multicoin Capital, in addition to several high-profile financial figures such as Blackstone CEO Stephen Schwarzman, Ken Fisher of Fisher Investments, AQR Capital Management co-founder Cliff Asness and Paul Singer, the billionaire co-CEO of hedge fund Elliott Management who has a stake in Michael Saylor's bitcoin behemoth, Strategy.

The leading donor to the PAC, though, is a nonprofit, Townsend Six Corp., which was established in late 2024 and backed by an $8 million contribution from an unidentified donor.

The Ohio election will be among the hotly contested Senate battles that decide the majority of that chamber for next year. While the lineup of open seats had been a difficult one for Democrats, the slip in Republican popularity during the administration of President Donald Trump has given Democrats a chance to retake that majority.

While polling last year had indicated that Husted had a strong lead over Brown, more recent polls have shown the race going neck and neck.

XRP Price Analysis

Despite this consolidatory trend, the positive is that the XRP price has held support. While it has not yet broken out, the altcoin has maintained the $1.30-$1.33 support zone, keeping hopes of a breakout alive.

Notably, XRP has consolidated around the mid $1.30s for over two weeks now, building momentum for a breakout. For context, the longer a consolidation, the stronger the breakout. Now, with the broader market recovery and sentiments improving, it is only a matter of time before XRP breaks out.

The crucial point to watch is the 50-day moving average. XRP has faced rejection on the last two attempts to break above this dynamic resistance, peaking at around $1.395 on April 7 and 14.

Multiple retests weaken selling pressure, and if XRP keeps hitting this supply wall, a breakout could be imminent. Currently at $1.38, breaking above the 50-day MA with strong volume sets the pace for a rally to the next resistance stronghold around $1.46.

However, further market participation could help this course. Futures trading volume is down 2.67% in the past 24 hours, and XRP spot activities have dropped 7.38% in the same timeframe. XRP open interest has also dropped 4.43% in the past day, indicating slower spot and derivative traction towards the coin.
