tax? what tax? this aint the stock market
you dont pay tax til you sell you fucking retard
dood u have to pay capital gains taxes on crypto retard
if it gets to $300 and you don't sell some you're fucking dumb..... its not going to go up and up and up. it COULD go up and up then down and up.... sell high buy low
uhhhh not that i know of. not atleast until you sell from what i know
Are you actually retarded?
lol i hate this place. this has to be bait. no way ppl are this completely braindead
You're only supposed to pay when you sell. If you're doing it through an exchange I would advise paying if they have your identity or risk trouble later.
why should you have to pay before you made any monetary gains? If your eth skyrockets and you don't sell why should you pay taxes on the assets you hold and if they go down beyond imagination you lose your investment AND you paid taxes for nothing.
Only if you sell your stuff and have some fiat gains you have to pay taxes on that so either don't sell or reinvest / buy useful stuff with it
okay op here, i did some reading and yes i dont have to pay till i sell
>this
you only pay taxes on the final $$ deposit in your bank account
What if you buy bitcoin at 800 and then two years later cash out when its at 600? Would you have to pay capital gains if you lost money?
protip: if you are selling high and buying the dips on the exchanges, you need to pay gains for the profits earned from those sales. you profits are not magically hidden until you deposit into a bank account.
>lost money
>capital gains
Are you hearing yourself?
they are. the concept is foreign to most kids fresh outa school. I was the exact same way until someone older dude gave me the lecture. I feel so fucking stupid. They are the entire voting bloc of Bernie Sanders.
Yes kiddies, you have to pay taxes on practically every fucking penny you make. The government owns you. gotta fund those wars and pay for tyrone and his 8 baby mamas somehow.

You are required to record every transaction of crypto currency meaning from one coin to the next and to cash.
You guys are going to get butt fucked by the IRS when you finally sell your coins.
>en.m.wikipedia.org
cool so should I just delete all my coin trading bookmarks now while I still only have 10 dollars into the whole thing
How would the government know you didn't accidentally lose all your coins.
Because they are not retarded.
>paying taxes on cryptos
yeah, if you are a retard who hates money
Only pussies report their crypto gainz to the IRS.
Let's say some investments moon and I'm left with 1mil.
How do I withdraw that to fiat w/o getting the IRS suspicious.
>if it gets to $300 and you don't sell some you're fucking dumb.....
HUrr durr what is long term holding
The government actually is pretty retarded. And it is going to be next to impossible for them to keep track of whats going on with crypto transactions.
OP ignore the shit posters. Only realized gains are taxed. Holding is fine you won't be taxed on the theoretical value. I'm just going to use that website bitcoin.tax, too stupid and lazy to do it manually.
Enjoy when whatever exchange you uses gets a letter from the IRS and bends over and gives them your info resulting in you getting butt raped for not reporting.
>using wikipedia as a source
You get an F, see the professor after class. On a more serious note AICPA believes that you may be able to report crypto to crypto as like kind exchanges of property, I'm going to do this.
You can claim it as a capital loss against your taxes. Has to be held for at least a year and once you disburse your position you can't buy back within 30 days.
>tfw not amerifat.
>paying taxes
>on crypto
You won't, you have to pay taxes. Avoiding it is only possible if you pay for everything with cash and withdraw only small amounts of money monthly. If you want to buy a house/car you are pretty much fucked unless you can launder your money.
Get somebody who lives in a country where gambling winnings aren't taxed to make a wager with you via Ethereum gambling service. Lose the wager. They can withdraw the money legitimately and tax free. Ask them nicely for a gift of the money. Profit?
