TREE NEWS reports: Two digital asset advocacy groups have filed a lawsuit against Illinois’ 0.2% digital asset tax, following a similar suit by the Digital Chamber in July. The groups argue the tax violates constitutional and due process rights, potentially setting a precedent for state-level crypto taxation.
Crypto groups challenge Illinois digital asset tax in court
This second legal challenge signals that the industry's fight against state-level crypto taxes is becoming coordinated rather than isolated, which raises the stakes for how courts treat digital assets under existing constitutional frameworks. The outcome could shape whether other states feel emboldened to impose similar levies or hesitate amid litigation risk. The core question is whether these suits establish a durable precedent limiting state taxing authority over crypto, or remain scattered, jurisdiction-specific rulings.
