  1. Meet the definition of intangible asset as defined in the Codification Master Glossary
  2. Do not provide the asset holder with enforceable rights to, or claims on, underlying goods, services, or other assets
  3. Are created or reside on a distributed ledger based on blockchain technology
  4. Are secured through cryptography
  5. Are fungible
  6. Are not created or issued by the reporting entity or its related parties.

Highlights of the key points in the proposed ASU

The amendments in this proposed Update would require that public business entities on an annual basis (1) disclose specific categories in the rate reconciliation and (2) provide additional information for reconciling items that meet a quantitative threshold (if the effect of those reconciling items is equal to or greater than five percent of the amount computed by multiplying pretax income [or loss] by the applicable statutory tax rate).

For entities other than public business entities, the amendments in the proposed update would require qualitative disclosure about specific categories of items and individual jurisdictions that result in a significant difference between the statutory tax rate and the effective tax rate.
