أصدر مجلس معايير المحاسبة المالية (FASB) تحديثًا للمعايير المحاسبية (ASU) لمعالجة المحاسبة والكشف عن الأصول المشفرة. أدت تعديلات ASU إلى تحسين المحاسبة لبعض الأصول المشفرة من خلال مطالبة الكيانات بقياسها بالقيمة العادلة والاعتراف بتغيرات القيمة العادلة في صافي الدخل في كل فترة تقرير.
قال ريتشارد جونز، رئيس مجلس معايير المحاسبة المالية (FASB)، إن المعيار الجديد استجاب لتعليقات أصحاب المصلحة من جميع الخلفيات الذين أشاروا إلى أنه يجب على مجلس الإدارة إعطاء الأولوية لتحسين محاسبة الأصول المشفرة والإفصاح عنها. كما تطلب التعديلات من الكيانات تحسين المعلومات المقدمة للمستثمرين حول الحيازات الكبيرة، وقيود البيع trac ، والتغييرات بين فترات التقارير.
يعزز FASB قواعد محاسبة Bitcoin الخاصة بالشركات
التاريخ: قواعد محاسبة القيمة العادلة لـ #BITCOIN تدخل حيز التنفيذ رسميًا اليوم
في السابق، كان بإمكان الشركات تقييم بيتكوين فقط بالسعر الذي اشترته، وليس المكاسب

FASB’s fair value accounting standard, which will be officially implemented starting today, allows companies like MicroStrategy to use fair value measurement methods to more accurately reflect the real value of Bitcoin assets. Previously, companies had to use the impairment loss accounting method, which reflected the falling value of Bitcoin as a loss in their accounting books. It was also difficult to reflect the actual increase in Bitcoin’s market value in accounting.
Applying fair value accounting standards would allow Bitcoin’s market value fluctuations to be reflected in real time. The regulatory shift improved investor confidence and aligned Bitcoin valuation with market conditions. Many analysts expected this clarity to further increase institutional interest in Bitcoin.
“It will provide investors and other capital allocators with more relevant information that better reflects the underlying economics of certain crypto assets and an entity’s financial position while reducing cost and complexity associated with applying current accounting.”

Early adoption of the ASU amendments would also be permitted for both interim and annual financial statements that still need to be issued. The ASU’s amendments will apply to all assets that meet the definition of intangible assets under the FASB accounting standard codification.
Bitcoin to gain appeal as treasury reserve asset
According to the FASB, the fair value rule marked a critical point for the role of digital assets like Bitcoin in corporate finance. Under the new standard, companies would be able to hold Bitcoin without concerns over impairment-driven reporting issues.
MicroStrategy’s founder and Chair, Michael Saylor, said that upgrading accounting standards would facilitate corporations adoption of BTC worldwide, as a treasury reserve asset. He expected MARA to be the next Bitcoin company to be added to the Nasdaq 100.
Saylor identified the FASB fair value rule as one of the three factors pushing Bitcoin’s price towards $1 million. He also emphasized that traditional bank custody would drive Bitcoin’s bullish trend. The MicroStrategy Chair added that bank custody services increased mainstream confidence and Bitcoin adoption by providing secure investment channels.
While the new guidance applied to assets that met the scope criteria under ASC 350-60, not all assets would meet these criteria. Deloitte reported that wrapped tokens such as WBTC (Wrapped Bitcoin) would not be included in the scope of the new rule since such tokens provided their holders with the right or claim to the underlying wrapped crypto assets. Entities would need to use ‘judgment’ in accounting for wrapped tokens even if the underlying token was within the scope of the amendments.
