Crypto isn't illegal, there's no one to dodge unless you're trying to not pay taxes. If crypto is your only source of income, as long as it's a long term asset, you pay no taxes for earnings under $37,950. That should be enough to live off of. If you make more than that from your job, then the capital gains tax is 15% to 20% depending on your situation. If you make over $418,00 a year, you pay 20% capital gains. If you make under $418,000 a year you pay 15%. It's not bad dude. Just pay the tax.

The big problem is the fact that you have to pay tax on crypto gains that weren't cashed out, e.g. make $50k profit in crypto and cash out only $10k, you now basically have to give away all of your cash gains just for the privilege of holding onto your crypto. If the tax only applied when cashing out it wouldn't be a big deal at all, basically not much different from income tax.

I'm not arguing that bitcoin isn't *technically* considered an asset rather than a currency by the government.

You don't man. You pay capital gains on the cash out. In order to buy altcoins you have to use bitcoin or another major crypto-currency. Taxing this transference makes little to no sense because of this, So there is an exception under the IRS's legal code:

>IRC Section 1031 provides an exception and allows you to postpone paying tax on the gain if you reinvest the proceeds in similar property as part of a qualifying like-kind exchange.

We are trading in assets that are like-like. So no tax has to be paid until the cash out at the end.

That second part is the one I take issue with.

Let's say I have 10,000 in USD. I used to have to pay 3 bucks for a bigmac, and now bigmacs only cost 1.5. My dollars clearly rose in value, using bigmacs as a baseline. But you don't pay taxes, because you didn't actually have a numerical gain. Your 10k is still 10k.

So why would bitcoin be any different? If I have 1.0 bitcoin, and I used to be able to buy a bigmac for 10 mBTC and now a bigmac costs me 1 mBTC, the value still went up relatively to the goods I'm buying, but I still didn't actually have any numerical gaine. I had 1.0 BTC. I still have 1.0 BTC. why would I pay taxes on this? Do I also get a subsidy if the value of my bitcoin crashes and it costs more than what I started with to pay for goods?

No,that's not true. If that was the case then you'd have to pay taxes every time your house increased in value. Think about it, your bitcoin is constantly raising in value. At what time does the tax apply? If it worked how you say, then I could cheat the tax man by withdrawing a chunk of bitcoin today, paying the tax on the whole thing, and then not paying tax when the whole thing quintuples in value and I sell it. If you are taxed every time it goes up in value, then the value of your asset will always eventually fall to zero. You only get taxed once you cash out.

I am an accountant sitting on some serious crypto gains as well and hopefully much more if SWT moons. I have been pondering this as well.

The IRS is gonna come after you for sure if you make multiple thousand dollar deposits over the course of a year. I want to buy a new jeep.

To get around this I have been thinking of starting an LLC for around 770. Call it some bullshit like "Digital Holdings LLC" and record those deposits as investment income. However, to reduce my gain I then use those gains to buy my Jeep and write off any depreciation. Essentially creating a shell company to funnel all of my gains into while also writing anything off on the business I would like to spend it on such as a new car, boat, motorcycle. Because Digital Holdings is in the business of renting shit out to customers as well goyim.

No, because then you'd be paying taxes on a theoretical gain. The portion you left on may end up being a loss when you cash it out later. I'm not a tax attorney, and I know the topic is complex. But from everything I've read that's how this work. Else trading would become impossible. Eating 10% or more on every transaction between assets would end in you having nothing at the end unless each of your gains was monstrous.

also if your not aware of Bittrex verification:

https://bittrex.zendesk.com/hc/en-us/articles/215282838-Frequently-asked-questions-about-account-verification

"When does this go into effect?

We're still in the planning stages of implementing a phased approach.

Currently we have implemented limitations on withdrawal amounts depending on level of verification and the enabling of two-factor. Please see https://bittrex.zendesk.com/hc/en-us/articles/231701788 for details on the limits.

Our second phase is expected to start in late May/June where enhanced accounts will be needed to trade fiat and a number of other services we are expected to roll out.

Our third phase is to require every account to at least be basic verified. The time frame for that is TBD."

because of :"Bittrex verifies the account of each user as part of our Anti-Money Laundering (AML) and Know Your Customer (KYC) program."

which in turn will mean once your ID is known there, they will start reporting your gains when you cash out there in FIAT (once implemented).

Ill be off of that exchange by the time the 3rd phase kicks in so i dont need to verify myself just to withdrawal my crypto. Not to avoid the law, i simply dont trust a few of these places with my actual personal details.

Wrong retard, you're taxed at your income bracket(assuming shortterm holdings). Better never work for your entire life, have to avoid that tax, in fact you get taxed more on your regular income because at least with your crypto gains you aren't paying social security or medicare.

I don't understand why people say you have to track each and every single one of your shitcoin transactions so you know how much to pay so you don't get fucked by the IRS. Just subtract your initial investment from your holdings when you cash out and then pay the 15% (or whatever it is based on income bracket/state).

No, I'm assuming they're properties, and it's ambiguous at best whether or not the IRS would allow for the like-kind argument.

You tax the gains/losses after a transaction, not before. You could buy BTC, hold onto it forever, and not worry about capital gains taxes. Once you exchange that for USD or for an un-like property, you can calculate the gains by holding, and therefore the proper tax.

>Under the Internal Revenue Code certain types of assets do not qualify under the 1031 exchange regulations by being specifically labeled “non-like kind”. At the time of publishing, differing types of virtual currencies have not been identified as “non-like kind” or like kind with one another. Since no guidance on this subject currently exists, 1031 exchanges of differing types of cryptocurrency, while not outright prohibited, is not guaranteed to be a tax-free exchange. The conservative approach would be to not claim section 1031 on an exchange of one digital currency for another. If a taxpayer choses to be aggressive and claim the benefits of 1031 during this type of an exchange, this uncertainty should be adequately disclosed on a return taking a position that an exchange of one cryptocurrency for another should qualify for 1031 to minimize potential penalties that could apply.
In other words, cross your fingers and do all the work of disclosing each trade anyways, because if the IRS makes a ruling against your favor, you're going to owe a lot of penalties and have to do a lot of backtracking of trades.
