Good luck on more than 10K in bullion. The places that convert crypto to bullion follow the same rules as they have to, selling commercially. And, bullion traders HAVE to have you fill out a form for orders over a certain size. You can thank the shithead muslim terrorists for that, the Feds and the governments of other countries are way up bullion dealer's asses because of their shit.

Every single person on here who thinks they have it figured out, is going to get cornholed dry if they try to launder more than 10k. The public isn't even sure of what the governments have in place to track money, especially across borders, but hurr derrr, right, kiddies?

Bought around 1.8BTC-- accumulated @ various prices. Sold on coinbase at a loss(2-3%) and bought ethereum.

That's what I have today.

If I were to cash out, is there anyway to wind up fucked? Or would I only be liable for the gains I've made from BTC $ Increase?

Still, even if you're in America/W.Europe, I think you'd have to be a brain-dead willing slave to let yourself be extorted from. I've seen people on this board say they will report each trade they ever made on an overseas exchange that doesn't require identification. Who's forcing you to do that? Why aren't you using crypto to hide your profits from these criminals? Why don't you move to a tax haven? I mean, if you're so dumb as to still think government is necessary, you totally deserve it.

Honestly though unless you are one of the "whales" you shouldn't have anything to worry about if you don't want to. The IRS only knows what you tell them...

Try and think of it in terms of how the DEA figures out who to go after. They want the BIG fish which I can tell you is maybe 5% of the posters on this board. They are going after darkweb people that sell fentanyl, heroin, coke, meth etc. they aren't going to come knocking on your door because you bought a couple tabs of acid, it isn't feasible.

OR think of the NSA / FBI / CIA If you had a magic computer that let you spy on anyone it is pretty safe to assume that pretty much everyone is doing something really messed up they wouldn't even know who to even go after.

FBI hasn't stopped any of these shootings because they can't keep up with the tips or info they have received.

This is cracking down on piracy all over again. They will put kids in jail and paint crypto like its only for child porn. They will likely torture innocent people for their keys and PEOPLE WILL DIE as a result of this situation. The end result will be a battle of attrition and the only ones punished will be the ones with targets painted manually on their backs. This wont be just the US either.

I totally agree that this is 100% a huge disaster and it is fucked how they are implementing taxation on crypto to crytpto trades which is forcing many people to liqudate at a loss to pay taxes.
That is an illegal act in my mind. No one should be able to force me to liqudate at a loss to pay taxes on a crypto to crypto trade. it's fucked.
I am in this situation myself. Have to pay almost 40k in taxes on crypto trades and I never sold 1 BTC to USD ever. Just got in early and traded like crazy..
So do I not pay and risk it all ? Or sell my crypto now the market is down 60% to pay my tax debt on trades that never became fiat..
Yes it's fucked. Yes alot of people will not pay.
but this is a war on banks and they have the resources and we have probably less than 100k people in crypto...

The exchange has to report ever single little fee they received and what the transaction was for and to whom.

Goddamnit, if I said it once I’ve said it a thousand times to you freaks. Monopoly money is not real money, it’s the same reason you don’t have to pay taxes when you trade your little pokemon cards. You could have invested into a 401k like us sane, rational people but you insist on putting money(real money) into something that is worthless. How many times do we have to say this YOU CAN’T MAKE A LIVING LIKE THIS! This delusion is sickening, it is truly sickening... If you wanted a good return for your money why not invest like Warren Buffet and buy Coca Cola shares, oh who am I kidding of course you won’t. You “people” are not more than pot smoking gamblers and it is millenials like yourselves who love to blame people who are older and wiser than you for your poor life choices. When you see successful, normal folks walking around you laugh and scoff, not realizing your own parents were wishing they put your sorry ass up for adoption before it was too late, but now it is. Maybe one day you so called “investors” will pull yourselves up by the bootstraps, make something of the pathetic thing you call a life and join us in the land of the living and not be trying to get rich quick by trading your invisible chucke cheese tokens, but sadly I do not see this happening any time soon.

Crypto is going to be insanely contentious in the coming years. Simply owning crypto will mean you are treated as a tax evader by default. You may be raided for your keys. We will see torture on inmates for keys as well. I wont rule out anything at this point.

Come April we are either going to see the IRS complain a very small number of people reported earnings. Or we are going to see a mass downplaying of the situation to make it seem like people are paying but in reality the numbers will be low as fuck.

Dummy, you don't have a taxable event until there are gains, or losses. If you transfer your altcoin to bitcoin, and it's the same value when you cash out, that transaction isn't taxed.

The only conclusion I can come up with from threads like this is, most of you have never owned any cryptocoins, never cashed any out, and therefore don't have to actually go through the process of filing a tax return for them. Or you made $50 last year.

If you were issued a 1099k the IRS absolutely has a copy, or GDAX would be in trouble, and you're not worth it to them. If you have a 1099k, you HAVE to file on the 15th, file for an extensions, or file and set up a payment plan, if you can't pay in full. Not filing is more serious than filing and not paying. If you let it go long enough, the fines and penalties can be more than what you owe, and the clock is ticking from April 15th. You won't go to jail, but you WILL get a bill. What usually happens is they'll do your taxes for you, and send you the bill, and they don't maximize your deductions for your benefit - then you can file an amended return, or you can ignore it, that's when you go to court and a judge garnishes your paycheck.

His taxes are a strong indication of the situation perioud. Like I said, if Ripple still exists on April 16 we know they either have white lists or they simply didn't pay either. So ready your buttholes if you have any money in that shitcoin. This applies to all coins where we know the editntity of the creator who has pre mined coins or obtained large sums of his own coins.

Dan Larimer is fucked as well. Satoshi had a very good reason for hiding his identity because his wallets would mean he owes massive amounts of money. Cardano has pre mined coins too.

in a coin to coin situation for taxation the very existence of coins with known creators is threatened greatly. Anyone from home creates a concurrency is automatically jail bait.

Simply creating an ERC 20 token and giving yourself a bunch of those coins means you will likely be taxed heavily for doing so. In the cases where a crypto creator is a known entity and his coins reach higher values they will be forced to liquidate massive amounts of those coins just to pay taxes. Thus dumping the value of the coins to almost nothing.

Search on Twitter, do you see people like Vitalik talking about taxes? Nope they are all silent as fuck because they know the tax man is coming for them first if they don't want to get on the white list.

On that note you just admitted that in the new rules set by the IRS, the only people who can legally make a cryptocurrency are corporations. Even still, nothing, not even corporate taxes can get around the billions and billions of coins they have at their disposal. Ripple owes more taxes than probably 90% of other corporations and the CEO himself was almost crowned the wealthiest man on earth in December and was promptly hit with the crypto crash in January.

Pay capital gains on what you cash out. The IRS doesn’t just randomly jail people for reporting less than what they owe if it was done in good faith. They’d first send you a bill, and that’s really only worst case scenario. If you haven’t cashed out, they don’t even know (or care, yet) about your crypto.
