Billboard Erected In US Calling Out Senator Richard Shelby to Slam Crypto Amendment Bill

Joshua Sievers August 29, 2021 2 min read

Crypto community showed its discontent over the 1.2 Trillion Dollar Infrastructure Bill because it contained a provision wherein definition of “broker” was defined to include crypto miners as well as the developers, which though are ‘non-brokers’ and the provision required them both to comply with crypto reporting requirements.

Yet, there is a community which is still fighting and calling out US lawmakers under #Dontkillcrypto initiative to turn their backs on the amendment seeking to broadening the definition of “broker” by erecting a leased billboard addressing Senator Richard Shelby from Alabama.

Most of the American are not aware that their lawmakers have made the 1.2 Trillion Dollar Infrastructure Bill as controversial one. What they have done is that they have incorporated a provision which contained a definition of “broker”. This very definition has been incorporated to include crypto for the purposes of “reporting requirement” as mandatory.

However, while doing so, they have broaden “broker” definition to include crypto exchanges etc. along with software developers and miners. The provision was added for the purposes of taxing crypto businesses and associated activities.

However, the added provision instantly attracted criticism which led several lawmakers to move an amendment. The amendment was authored by Senators Cynthia Lummis, Pat Toomey, Kyrsten Sinema, Rob Portman and Mark Warner.

But the amendment was turned down and the definition was left as it was. The bill was then approved for seeking final approval in the Parliament, which will be taken up after vacations.

But there is a movement called ‘Fight For the Future’ pushing #Dontkillcrypto agenda while trying that the amendment should be considered. The movement has now obtained a billboard on lease in Alabama for promotion of the cause and agenda of the movement. The billboard addresses Richard Shely, the lawmaker who was presumably behind the blocking of the amendment set forth by several lawmakers.

The message draws public attention that the 1.2 Trillion Dollar Infrastructure Bill in its present form is harmful against existence of crypto. So far the movement has made 41,360 phone calls to the Senators and wrote approximately 1,622 e-mails addressed to lawmakers and politicians. They are putting up the fight for their legitimate rights to make sure the harmful provision is taken out of the proposed bill.

The movement is of the view that under the garb of “infrastructure bill”, the Government is trying to bring in the harmful provision. They argue that the purpose behind is not to identify tax avoiders but to employ strict and unnecessary surveillance upon crypto economy.

Such an ill-founded scheme carved in the disguise of “infrastructure bill” will hamper several fundamental cryptocurrencies in the US, movement claims. Either these currencies will be technically knocked out or they will go elsewhere other than the US, opines the movement.
