Bitcoin Magazine reports that U.S. regulators, including FinCEN and the Federal Reserve, have withdrawn a 2020 proposal to lower the cross-border funds-transfer threshold from $3,000 to $250. The proposal also aimed to clarify that the rules would apply to cryptocurrency transactions. Regulators stated that any future version of the proposal will require a new comment period.
