No More Impairment Charges: FASB Weighs Crypto Accounting Standards
The Financial Accounting Standards Board (FASB) is gathering feedback on long-awaited proposed changes to how companies report crypto holdings. According to the FASB, the existing accounting treatment of crypto as indefinite-lived intangible assets fails to offer investors informative data for decision-making purposes. As a result, companies must evaluate the worth of their crypto on an annual basis and make a downward adjustment if the value falls below the purchase price — commonly reported as impairment charges, such as the ones posted by Tesla and MicroStrategy.

‘Ancient’ Bitcoin Changes Wallets After 12 Years Dormant
Asleep for ages, more sats wake from years of slumber. Bitcoin bought in 2011 came back to life on Thursday, when 139 Bitcoin belonging to address 1H1Ab6 moved into a newly created Segwit address. The owner—who hodled for nearly twelve years–bought the coins in June 2011 for a bit over $2,250 dollars, only to see them grow into a staggering $3.5 million at bitcoin’s current price mark. These coins belong to what’s known as Ancient Supply, which refers to Bitcoin purchased at least 7 years ago, although some analysts use 5 years as their base date. So far this year, over 3,000 BTC from Ancient Supply has returned to life. Source: Decrypt
