I was just planning on doing the following:

-Cash out lump sum of GBP eventually
-Find out how much profit I made from my total fiat investment (not each individual buy)
-Pay 20% CGT on that, no fuss

The government however says I need to be tracking each single trade I've made and the profits

Do I really need to do this? If I made £1 million profit and paid HMRC £200k will they really try and scrutinise further?

Yes, it's designed to stop you from joining the upper class. People like you are not welcome there, that's why you don't hear any info in the UK about an average Joe becoming a wealthy Lord. It's simply not allowed in the UK, thanks to the Monarchy and the Upper Class. Don't fucking disclose anything, buy gold with Crypto and pawn it under the table. If you're ever on their radar, they'll confiscate everything from you without any questions. They really don't care, their literal fucking job is to stop you from changing your social class to a level above.

>>17292578
won't they ask more about what exchange it was etc and proof?

I guess this only happens if you get audited though right... like if you cashed out 1 mil and paid them 200k, then as long as they don't audit, it's fine?

>> No.17292623

>>17292607
They will audit. If someone paid 200k, it means they have a million to confiscate. They get a bonus on their payslip and you go to jail. Don't trade in the UK to be honest. The game was designed to be stacked fully against you.

I read their guidance and I took from it that a lump in vs out calculation is sufficient.

There is NO WAY people have all of their trades. I must have made fucking 1000s since 2013 when I first got in, and the vast majority are lost forever on dead exchanges, lost accounts, etc etc.

I DO know how much fiat I've pumped in, however.

I'm sure it will be fine.

HMRC guidance does say that crypto-crypto trades are taxable. I just am not sure if it really will be enforcable in any way and if just paying them 20% will keep them happy

nobody in their right mind taxes every fucking trade, can't believe somebody sat down and thought that this would actually work. If you're in a position where you can actually cash out 1 mill, call around first. Ask the tax faggots and your bank before doing anything. Then either move to a more crypto friendly country, or wait until they maybe get a fucking clue and realize that a net tax on X amount you cash out is the actual way to get any fucking tax money from crypto

I’ve cashed out 2 btc since last year both when btc was over 10k
If you’re too stupid to launder money maybe just go back to waging desu.
Also cashed out 0.5 in 2017 ATH by simply buying gold bullion in the us for a friend who sent me a cheque for the value minus a fee for his troubles.

> crypto-to-crypto is taxed
Hahaha what? How the fuck am I supposed to calculate that? I've done thousands on transactions each month on Coinbase Pro. Swinging and buying the dips to sell the top and swing again. I've made some money out of it, but it's still below the Capital Gains Tax freeway, also it only applies when you actually cash out, yes? No one in their right fucking mind would design a law this flawed, right?

holy shit you fucking retard
nobody gives a shit about your 30k. You can cash that out without any problem literally anywhere in the world. You didn't even have to fucking do it the hard way that you did. Nobody would bat an eye if a few 5-10k deposits were made into an account.
YOU ACTUALLY BOUGHT GOLD FOR SOMEONE IN THE US AND HAD HIM SEND YOU A CHEQUE MINUS HIS FEE HAHAHAHAHA FOR 30K AAAAAAAAAAHHHHHHHHHHHAHAHAHAHA

well singapore seems to be the easiest place to gain a citizenship for a country without crypto tax. 2 years of residency only, whereas the other countries have 5-10 years. you're gonna have to have a pretty hefty sum of money you want tax free for it to be worth the cost of living over there. But if you're at risk of the government literally confiscating your crypto money if you try to cash it out, i guess you don't really have many alternatives

been looking into gold option, buying specifically royal mint gold oz coins directly with btc at peak cycle. This is technically CGT gains free in the UK for uk tax residents I think but I need to research further. Means with like £1 million of btc you will need to buy several hundred oz coins like a fucking pirate hahahaha

>You do not need to pay Capital Gains Tax on the value of the tokens that you’ve already paid Income Tax on. You’ll still need to pay Capital Gains Tax on the gain you make after you’ve received them. You can deduct certain allowable costs, including a proportion of the pooled cost of your tokens when working out your gain. You can also use capital losses to reduce your gain, but you’ll need to report them to HMRC first.
