Title: Are you considering setting up a Business with Asic mining? Post by: Sc@rF@c3 on July 18, 2013, 12:07:43 AM I was wondering if anyone mining with the new ASIC’s has set up a business.
I see the advantages as:
In my country (UK) I would have to pay Capital Gains Tax on exchanging Bitcoins through exchanges, but not when bartering privately. If I was to do this, I would have to initially set up as a sole trader, as my Capital Gains Tax rate is 18%; my income is less than £34,370 (2012-13 allowance) I would love to hear about your plans, and if you are considering setting up a business.

Post by: giantdragon on July 18, 2013, 01:41:29 AM Some countries have very prohibitive laws for starting and maintaining businesses. For example, requirement to send detailed accountant reports every month and which must be in special format that only professional accountants know how to make. Also some states require to make a guarantee deposit that can be seized to cover debts of your business.

Thinking back when I lived in Germany, I had to have professional accounting done, cost a small fortune for a hobby retail business. The last I knew, it was possible to do your own books in the UK, not too many requirements. Title: Re: Are you considering setting up a Business with Asic mining?
