Head to an RBC general thread and take a look at this projects. I know there is a lot of spam, this is because we have almost 200 biz people already large bag holders in it. Cross chain swaps with ethereal and solutions to the gas problem are in the pipeline. Listing on kraken and binance by end of February.

memes aside this is the most important post ITT. it's obvious regulation will be adjusted at some point, but right now you can and should use USDC/DAI
even when regulation hits, it's still worth going decentralized and reporting just one trade whenever you cash out some gains

Taxable capital gains for the year are reduced by the amount of capital losses incurred in that year. A capital loss is when you sell an investment for less than you purchased it for. The total of long-term capital gains minus any capital losses is known as the "net capital gain," which is the amount capital gains taxes are assessed on.
https://www.irs.gov/taxtopics/tc409

Up to 80k total income for the year then it gets more nuanced. I think so but losses may be capped per year I think, then it gets into rollover losses. Investopedia and google are your friend.

I have a decent amout of ETH on an exchange. I have $97+ USDC in a wallet and I wanted to empty it out and send it back to the exchange (it wss just an experiement and I started with $100). Between transfer in off the exchange and not having to buy ETH to transfer it back, the original $100 will wind up being about $25 with roughly $70 in ETH gas to get it back plus a $5 apple pay fee. Total loss of about $73 including cost it + $75 ($153 just to wind up with $25). What a fucking stupid system! Something needs to change with Ethereum Network. I can't believe I own this shit thinking it is going to keep making me profits. No reason to use. Just to speculate.

>es, but there are limits. Losses on your investments are first used to offset capital gains of the same type. So, short-term losses are first deducted against short-term gains, and long-term losses are deducted against long-term gains. Net losses of either type can then be deducted against the other kind of gain.

For any leafs here, do I pay taxes on unrealized fiat gains? Say I make 100k this year but don't cash out, will I have to report taxes if I don't wanna get fucked by the cra? So will I have to cash out ~25k from crypto just to pay taxes? Or can I just wait, not report anything this year, and say in 10 years when I cash out pay all 10 years worth of taxes on every transaction then.
