The rise of blockchain technology has introduced innovative concepts such as smart contracts and Decentralized Autonomous Organizations (DAOs). However, as they become more prevalent, a significant question arises: Are smart contracts and DAOs considered tax entities?
This course provides tax and accounting professionals specializing in Web3, DeFi, cryptocurrency, and blockchain technologies with an in-depth exploration of how smart contracts and decentralized autonomous organizations (DAOs) are viewed from a tax perspective. Participants will learn when software arrangements may be considered tax entities or subject to "look-through" treatment. The Course will cover the potential tax consequences of these treatments and delve into arguments contradicting them.
Additionally, the course will explain relevant tax guidelines and best practices for minimizing risks. Topics such as partnership, domestic and foreign corporation treatment, and alternatives to entity classification will be addressed. Participants will also learn about real-world use cases involving DAOs and protocols, understand key concepts like liquidity pools, and explore potential strategies to avoid undesired tax implications. The presenter will discuss thought experiments and practical examples to illustrate the implications and applications of the discussed concepts.
