On April 16, Cointelegraph reported that the Cato Institute, a U.S. think tank, released a report stating that the U.S. government should eliminate the capital gains tax on Bitcoin and other cryptocurrencies to facilitate their use as everyday currency and promote fair competition among different currencies. Currently, U.S. tax law treats Bitcoin as a capital asset, triggering a taxable event when users pay for goods or services with Bitcoin, requiring them to calculate and report capital gains. This results in even small everyday purchases potentially generating hundreds of pages of tax documentation, significantly increasing compliance burdens. Cato aims to remove the current U.S. tax policy barriers to the use of cryptocurrencies as currency. Cato researcher Anthony emphasized, "Congress should simplify tax laws to allow ordinary Americans to easily fulfill their obligations, which would greatly alleviate the pressure of tax season and create a more competitive economic environment." According to a 2025 survey, 39% of U.S. cryptocurrency holders have used crypto assets to purchase goods and services, and currently, around 11,000 merchants worldwide accept Bitcoin payments.

On April 16, Nicholas Anthony, a policy scholar and researcher at the Cato Institute, stated in a report on Wednesday that the capital gains tax (CGT) is hindering the use of alternative currencies like Bitcoin, as this tax encourages long-term holding and adds an additional reporting burden. He argued that the simplest solution is to completely abolish the capital gains tax; another viable option would be to exempt cryptocurrency and foreign currency transactions from capital gains tax, thereby 'removing the government's intervening hand from the scale and allowing market competition to truly determine the optimal form of currency.'
