Project Overview

Summary

The North Carolina Department of Revenue (NCDOR) administers tax laws and collects taxes due in an impartial, consistent, and secure manner. It is the goal of NCDOR that all taxpayers voluntarily comply with their tax obligations. This means filing and paying all returns due and taxes owed in a timely manner. With the increasing use of cryptocurrency exchanges, NCDOR is seeking an analysis of the impact of cryptocurrency transactions on NC tax obligations.

Deliverables

Planned use of results
