The plaintiffs allege that the tax law violates the U.S. Constitution, the Illinois Constitution, and the Internet Tax Freedom Act. The tax law stipulates that entities conducting business or providing services to residents in Illinois, with annual revenue exceeding $100,000, must pay a 0.2% tax on digital asset transactions or storage.
