yes. it's terrible

>>30056724
Did you have your USB with you on a boat lmfao?

>>30056724
What's the origin of this ""story""? I tried looking and couldn't find where it started.

>>30056724
Context of pic?

>>30056724
I think it originally was about "losing" your weapons in a boating accident and later expanded to other things like crypto. But it might be even older than that.

>>30059040
/k/ uses that quite often

>>30059382
it’s gold

>>30056724
Say that your hardware wallet device with the keys got lost

>>30059251
Boating accident

In short, no.

What if I move all my crypto to a hardware wallet saying some guy was supposed to buy them off me but I got scammed? Can I write $11k in assets off just like that?

>>30056724
They might, but they'll ask for your exchange information and use that to find your wallets, and if anything moves out of them the IRS will rape you against a wall.

Yes and I lost my guns too when one Accidentally discharged and blew a hole in my boat that took out my Ledger.

“Sorry officer i lost my guns in a boating accident is a meme 2nd amendment advocates use when they talk about what they will say to the cops when the cops come for their guns.


Everyone for some reason thinks cops have the balls to go door to door to and confiscate everyones guns for a government that hates them... When our military can’t even take on sand people in less than a decade. No worries there.

Just say that you were hacked and any movement from that wallet is due to hackers

>>30060042

Op was talking about IRS. A US institution.

>>30056724
Nope. You are held liable.

>>30056724
it's such a terrible situation to lose your crypto
fortunately we always find them
but we keep losing them at some point wtf is wrong with crypto, maybe we shall contact the crypto makers to correct this issue

>>30056724
it could work, just say that you had it on a laptop and had the keys on it, they literally can’t prove you wrong

>>30059888
google “hurricane katrina gun confiscations” you ignorant faggot

>>30059670
>uses localbitcoins

>>30059714
>unironically living in the boat

why?

I reserve the "safari accident" for myself. Go get your own accident, fags.

monero dev posted it on twitter. some idiots thought he lost his keys for real and ran a story. i has been around before but that gave it a boost no doubt

europoor here. am I supposed to report the bags I hold?

If this question ever comes my way I will simply say I got hacked and no longer have access to the wallet

Watches your crytpo wallet for the next 50 years waiting for a sat to move

I always wonder about this. Because unlike the 'lost in a boating accident' scenario, the crypto will still move due to the 'hackers' that have it in their possesion?
What will the alphabet boys do?

>>30062021
If you use Bitcoin then all transactions made from your "hacked" wallet are tracable, so you can't buy any shit. You need to use Monero to have a proper accident.

>>30062094
Send it through monero and it’s untraceable

>>30062828
>>30063094
Didnt the feds just find a workaround to trace through Monero?

>>30059040
It's as old as the hills. The first I heard it was in reference to the government coming to collect all the guns. Since there is no paper record on most of them, "I lost them in a boating accident" is the meme.
Funny though, I know a guy who went hunting up in Cannuckistan and they had to cross a lake with their first nations guide in some glorified rowboat. Boat capsized and they lost a whole pile of guns and 3 elk. Nearly died themselves. So I guess it does happen.

Yes you can also take a deduction as a loss.

>>30063435
They say so, but its more like
>dude, trust me :)

>>30060486
I wonder what goes through a zogbots mind when they do this in the middle of a lawless place

>>30059888
sand people

>>30056724
why not just send it to a wallet, and say you meant to send it to another wallet and lost it. Why not just fucking photoshop losses?

>>30066025
If isis started dressing like that that would be extremely based. Imagine one of those things running through and Ariana grande concert

>>30056724
only if it's in XMR

My doge ate my bitcoins. Sorry, complete loss.

You can use pic related as proof for the IRS.
