Two key directors working on crypto initiatives at the Internal Revenue Service (IRS) accepted deferred resignation offers directed by the Department of Government Efficiency (DOGE) on Friday, two people familiar with the situation told CoinDesk.

兩名熟悉情況的人告訴Coindesk，兩名在國稅局（IRS）接受加密貨幣倡議（IRS）的遞延辭職提議（DOGE）指示的遞延辭職要約。

The two officials, Seth Wilks and Raj Mukherjee, are technically still employees with the IRS for the next few months but they are on paid administrative leave as of Friday afternoon.

兩位官員塞思·威爾克斯（Seth Wilks）和拉吉·穆克吉（Raj Mukherjee）在技術上仍然是IRS的僱員，在接下來的幾個月中，但截至週五下午，他們將在帶薪行政假期。

The president's administration, through DOGE, offered deferred resignations to a wide array of federal employees earlier this year.

總統政府通過總督於今年早些時候向眾多聯邦僱員遞延了辭職。

Both Wilks and Mukherjee went to the IRS from the crypto industry. They joined the IRS Digital Asset Initiative in February and were tasked with helping the agency better approach crypto taxation, including leading the agency’s efforts to build reporting, compliance and enforcement programs for crypto and coordinating with the industry.

Wilks和Mukherjee都來自加密貨幣行業的IRS。他們於2月加入了IRS數字資產倡議，並負責幫助該機構更好地採取加密貨幣稅，包括領導該機構為加密貨幣建立報告，合規性和執法計劃的努力並與該行業進行協調。

They worked on an updated 1099-DA tax form shared last summer to aid U.S. persons with filing taxes tied to digital asset transactions.

他們於去年夏天為更新的1099-DA稅表提供了更新的1099-DA稅表，以幫助我們的人員，與數字資產交易相關的稅款。

The pair also oversaw parts of the agency’s efforts to draft tax rules for the crypto industry.

兩人還監督了該機構為加密行業起草稅收規則的部分努力。

The IRS finalized one such rule, imposing certain data collection requirements on decentralized finance (DeFi) brokers, in the waning days of the former administration. This rule was overturned by Congress earlier this year under the Congressional Review Act in a joint resolution signed by Trump.

美國國稅局在前政府的衰落時代最終確定了一項這樣的規則，對分散融資（DEFI）經紀人施加了某些數據收集要求。特朗普簽署的一項聯合決議，根據國會審查法，國會根據國會批准了這一規則。

Wilks was the IRS’ executive director of digital asset strategy and development, while Mukherjee was the executive director of the digital assets office.

威爾克斯（Wilks）是國稅局（IRS）數字資產戰略和開發的執行董事，而穆克吉（Mukherjee）是數字資產辦公室的執行董事。

Both people who spoke to CoinDesk noted that the two officials had accepted voluntary buyouts but that these deferred resignations came ahead of expected cuts to IRS staff.

與Coindesk交談的兩個人都指出，兩位官員都接受了自願收購，但是這些遞延的辭職是在IRS員工的預期裁員之前。

More than 20,000 IRS employees signed up for the deferred resignation program, the New York Times reported last month, with these employees being put on administrative leave through September.

《紐約時報》上個月報導說，超過20,000名IRS員工簽署了遞延辭職計劃，這些員工將在9月之前放置行政假。
