The "Department of Government Efficiency" reportedly wants to create a mobile app so Americans can file their taxes for free.

The article from Investopedia discusses a proposal by the Dogecoin Foundation, backed by Elon Musk, to make tax filing free for Americans. The initiative, known as the "Doge Commission," aims to leverage blockchain technology to simplify and reduce the cost of tax filing. The proposal suggests that the IRS could use Dogecoin to pay for transaction fees, thereby eliminating the need for taxpayers to pay for tax preparation services. This move is part of a broader push towards using cryptocurrencies for governmental transactions, potentially reducing administrative costs and increasing efficiency. The article highlights the potential benefits, such as lower costs for taxpayers and increased transparency, but also notes the challenges, including regulatory hurdles and the need for widespread adoption of cryptocurrency. The Dogecoin Foundation has already started discussions with U.S. lawmakers to explore the feasibility of this idea.
