>>"As well, if someone used Bitcoin to purchase another cryptocurrency, such as Ethereum, he or she would be considered to have sold the Bitcoin for its value in Canadian dollars at the time of the transaction, said Elgar."

this is bullshit

Fuck

How can they even claim this.

You retards. Actually taking 4chans advice on taxes. Go to h&r and ask them about it. You cannot LOSE money on taxes. You'll never have less than you started with and stupid articles like this and bad quotes make it sound like you can. You can't.

Because it's considered a commodity. If you trade a commodity for a commodity when the FMV is increased, then you realized a gain. Other wise people who bought crypto for really cheap can just not cash out and buy houses and lambos tax free.
