Charitable Deductions for Digital Asset Donations Act

Key claim: A House bill would change the federal tax rules for claiming charitable deductions when people donate cryptocurrency or other digital assets.

Abstract

(HR9173 · 119th Congress) Latest action (2026-06-08): Referred to the House Committee on Ways and Means.

Why this matters

Current IRS rules treat donated cryptocurrency as noncash property, which triggers appraisal requirements and valuation disputes that discourage charitable giving in digital assets. A targeted statutory change would shift who gets the deduction benefit — donors of appreciated crypto and the charities receiving them — relative to donors of cash or publicly traded securities. The bill’s committee-referral status means no rules have changed yet.
