Let's say that someone decides not to pay the IRS and has practically nothing in their bank account, all their money is in crypto. IRS audits you and says you owe them tens of thousands, you tell them you don't have it and can't pay and you're a jobless NEET so they have nothing to garnish. What's the maximum punishment they can give you?

They literally can't do shit if all your wealth is in crypto. Why do you think they spam this board with tax threads threatening people to pay? They really can't do anything but send you to prison, and unless they send you there for the rest of your life, you will come out a millionaire when you've done your time.

First thing they do is send a letter saying something along the lines of you having unclaimed capital gains of x dollars.

You would have to file an amended tax return, claim the capital gains, and pay. Now we are past the point of even an accountant helping you and you would have to get a tax attorney, because likely you are heading to tax court because you can't pay. Reason being because the amounts would be substantial. They aren't taking you to tax court for $500. $5637, maybe. Over ten thousand, guaranteed. Add up all this stuff and basically they got you for back taxes, failure to file, and likely tax evasion. The last one can get you a jail sentence if the amount is high enough. In either case with all the tax bills, court fees, and lawyer bills you should kys or get a black gf and pump out some halflings.

Has nothing to do with prosecuting you twice for the same crime brainlet. You get fined when you get sent to prison. Everyone does. It will be for far more than you originally owed, too.

I don't give a fuck if you pay your taxes or not but you're retarded if you think going to jail resolves you of the debt. Your bet is not getting caught -- if you get caught you will have the govt and a parole officer breathing down your neck for the money owed for the rest of your life

Anons. I have no idea why no one is challenging this law of trade being a taxable event.
(Maybe someone is, in which case please link me to it(.
The same situation with an inheritance tax.
The IRS is taxing an event and puts an imaginary valuation on that event and then wants fiat value of that valuation.
Let's say you traded your house for a better house just cause.
Now IRS comes and says: the better house is worth 10k more so you owe taxes on that 10k ( that's how inheritance tax also works), regardless of you selling the house or not and we want that tax in USD.
Now how they are allowed to do so?
And why no one put in that situation ( that I know of) tried to send them the door to the house with a note: the value of said door covers the value of the taxes I owe in USD. you can sell it or keep it, it's not my problem. I did not sell my house, so my house has an imaginary value so far, but because you insist on getting the part of the imaginary value, I priced my door on the open market and it covers it. Now fuck off.
Of course it would trigger a law suit but c'mon it's a regular theft.
I'm not paying taxes and fuck the IRS btw.
