According to the people who followed the delibirations, Senator Richard Shelby from Alabama has taken down the amendment because no one granted him a $50 billion package for his defense contracts.
I reckon this is what occurs if you make a very important policy through a last minute change that will be decided by people who do not know anything about the technology.

Your choice of words in regards to creation of of crypto tax rules is a bit misleading but at the same time intriguing, I thought that they've already made a desperate move to regulate crypto that they've already forge or fake some stuff just to push it through. Also, is it really that hard to pass a new regulation in crypto, it's not like people are asking too much.

Several U.S. Senators have been negotiating over the amendment language in a cryptocurrency tax reporting provision of the Infrastructure Investment and Jobs Act, which is one of many offsets designed to pay for the costs of the bill. These lawmakers are facing tremendous time pressure from the White House as well as the Senate Majority Leader Chuck Schumer (D-NY), to the point that the possibility still exists the bill could be moved to a vote without the amendment being considered.
In May, Forbes reported the tax enforcement plan from Biden included crypto tax reporting and just a few days ago, the White House updated its fact sheet on the bill that among many ways to pay for the bill includes the “…strengthening of enforcement when it comes to crypto currencies.” The increased crypto tax reporting is expected to raise $28 billion over ten years, although the degree to which Senators continues to carve out exceptions in the current language over who must report as a ‘broker’ under IRS rules may result in a need to recalculate this number.
A new Amendment from Senator Mark Warner (D-VA) and Krysten Sinema (D-AZ), that according to reports in the Washington Post, is being pushed by the Treasury Department and the current Administration, was updated to exclude proof-of-stake validators as well as proof-of-work cryptocurrency miners from the crypto tax reporting provision. Warner noted to reporters that this was likely the final list of exemptions, which leaves software developers and decentralized platforms exposed to the new statute, should it pass.
