🚨 **Arizona Pushes for Major Crypto Tax Relief!** 🇺🇸
Arizona State Senator Wendy Rogers is making waves again in the crypto space by prefiling three pro-crypto measures for the 2026 legislative session:
- **SB 1044**: Exempts virtual currency (crypto) from state taxation.
- **SB 1045**: Prohibits cities, counties, and towns from imposing taxes or fees on blockchain node operators – protecting home miners and validators.
- **SCR 1003**: A constitutional amendment to explicitly exclude digital assets from property taxes (this one heads to voters in November 2026).
These bills build on Arizona's growing crypto-friendly stance, following earlier efforts like the state's Bitcoin reserve initiatives. SB 1045 could advance directly through the legislature, while the tax exemptions may require public approval.
If passed, Arizona could become one of the most attractive U.S. states for crypto holders, traders, and blockchain innovators – potentially drawing talent and investment away from higher-tax regions.
What do you think – will this spark a race among states to go crypto-tax-free? 🚀
