>> No.22028780

>>22027342
When you say 'cash out', another thing to consider is whether you want to sell-then-rebuy March 2021 in order to lock-in CGT at a lower rate.

Lot's of traders do this in order to minimise tax liability, but it's not without pitfalls. If you flip your coins early to lock-in the tax bill then it's all gravy if they go up in price the next year. If they dump, you're in trouble though. You're paying tax on gains you no longer have.

What would work in this situation if one were willing to 'bend' the law would be what's known as a 'dark pool' exchange. In a 'dark pool' exchange, trades aren't public, but you could cryptographically prove you've made one should you chose not to 'forget' that you'd done so.

There's no project that's made a decentralised dark pool exchange yet, but there's one that was well on the way before they repositioned themselves as the premier provider of wrapped bitcoins. It's Ren. Yep, I'm shilling Ren...
