Title: Using Bitcoin to Buy Things Could Trigger IRS Tax Bill
Post by: ihnattm on October 22, 2017, 01:58:04 PM
Hi !
Using Bitcoin to buy everyday things, such as a burger, could trigger a tax bill from the IRS due to cryptocurrency being considered property. However, there is potential relief on the way in the form of new legislation.

Don't withdraw btc to bank and then buy a burger with a card. Use BTC atm or find guy on localbitcoins.com, get cash, buy burger. Problem fixed.
