Can we get a crypto tax thread?

How the fuck do I pay taxes on this shit if I have made hundreds of trades but make like less than $4k a year. I'm also at a loss in crypto and literal borderline NEET.

IRS is backed the fuck up. Trump blessed crypto that way. They were already struggling to tax crypto users, and now the government shutdown completely fucked it up even more. I Literally voted trump (so he could fuck with the central banks) so crypto would be seen as a safe haven, and it seems like that is happening now. If you stop trading now and just held until the next bubble, you’ll be fine.

here in sweden some guy made millions (of SEK) daytrading bitcoin. he tried to be honest and pay his taxes, however he couldn't prove his initial purchase since he apparently paid with cash. so the government ended up thinking he should pay more, 30% of the whole sale instead of 30% on the profit. basically he now must pay 4 times his actual profit in taxes and is ruined for the rest of his life.

what kind of signal does this send, when people TRY to pay their taxes but get fucked over because of it?

Really? Fuck, there is one exchange I used but never used again because it was shady and scammy. I don't even remember my password to it. Isn't there some rule where like you don't have to file if you don't make a certain amount? I've sold at a loss more than I have sold at a profit in $$$. What if I'm up in the amount of coins and sats but still down in dollars?

Bro there is just no way IRS can be gutted any more. Especially when it looks like people are in favor of taxing the super wealthy 70%. People are also fed up with corporations getting away with shit. I don't think Trump will be able to have his way and if he did I don't think the system will last that long before it starts crumbling.

I just upload all the excel files from Binance + coinbase? Do they allow a combination of file uploads and manual entries? Because I just found a screenshot of my trades I had on the scam exchange. I'm glad I thought about taking a screenshot of it.

How do you file taxes if you used shit like POWH or Criptokitties or some exchange that does? How do you file tax if you made bucks on gambling?

I used bitcoin.tax. It sucks that you have to pay, but it was easy. You can just import all your trades from a csv you get from Coinbase (or whatever you used). Then you can get a file to import into TurboTax.

Id pay my crypto taxes (jk Id max out my capital losses) if there was any way whatsoever of figuring out what the fuck Im supposed to do with hundreds and hundreds of Binance scalps, Coinbase/Cashapp deposits, etc. You've got absolutely be shitting me - add and subtract each time I made or lost a couple dollars per trade? Fuck that there is no choice.

If I ever make it, I'll sell everything at end of year, give them my cost basis, profit, and pay up then. This is total bullshit.

Not American, but since Crypto-Crypto trading became taxable event in my country, even in a case that I bought Bitcoin with my credit card and transfered the said Bitcoin to Binance and bought some other Altcoin = Taxable event according to law if Bitcoin's course did change at the time of purchase.

I have probably 100 buys in this manner, and every proof of every transfer. Most of the trades/buys have been at loss, but I have few trades that Bitcoin has pumped during the transfer and those 50 or so trades constitute gains of 50€.

I did not report that 50€ though because that sounded so fucking stupid amount to report. I am not swingtrading because of this fact, it is way too much hassle.
