21  Other / Politics & Society / Biden's Hypocritic Party on oil imports from Russia on: May 01, 2022, 08:16:36 AM
While US has been imposing sanctions on Russia for its invasion of Ukraine and has been mentioning that it supports Ukraine, it is also profiting from the war behind the curtains. Since the invasion started US has asked all other nations to stop imports from Russia, especially it wanted Egypt and India to stop the oil imports from Russia. However, recent reports from the The Centre for Research on Energy and Clean Air (CREA) suggest that US has made more imports than Egypt and India since the invasion. It totally baffles one to know how US government led by Biden has been playing a hypocrite all this time and lecturing other countries while doing it all by itself.

Having said this the EU remains to be the largest importer of fossil fuels from Russia while EU countries are imposing sanctions on Russia.

Yes, this is a natural reaction to the kind of environment that the Indian government has created over the years in India. While India has the largest population of qualified software engineers and could lead the path in crypto innovation, the government simply doesn't want to progress in the right path. The 'digital india' movement cannot be built upon regressive laws and it is time that the government takes crypto seriously and understand how it can be used for the good.

Yes, you could settle down in India and live like a king with $1500 earnt per month through your family. I'd suggest you find a great place in Bengaluru where you could get a posh place to live along with security for a rent of around $600 per month. The groceries are cheap and you can call in food and squeeze everything in with the next $400-$800 depending on how you spend and still have some cash left at the end of it. India might be considered as a third world country and there might be a few riots here and there, but you can always find a safe place with enough guards to look after you.
27  Other / Politics & Society / Re: Blockchain Application in Voting Systems! on: April 18, 2022, 03:55:01 PM
This has already been implemented in one form or other in Sierra Leone, Russia and Japan (Source).

In the implementation of the voting blockchain, we could possibly require a privacy protected blockchain for voting and would need to be thoroughly designed, so that a democratic tool in itself doesn't endanger democracy. Also, once it is implemented, it could face heavy resistance from people since blockchain has been always associated with social vices in the press and this may not be any different. Imagine the confusion, the governments who were criticizing cryptocurrencies are suddenly using the same technology for their voting purposes.

Feel free to nominate yourself, don't forget to add links to worthy posts, and help me get rid of some sMerit Smiley

Hi @LoyceV, since you mentioned that people here can nominate themselves as well, I would like to put forth some of the articles that I have written in the forum below. Kindly note that my core strength is in taxation and legal matters.

Top topics started by me:
1. https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=5334398.msg56908197#msg56908197
2. https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=5339221.msg57065554#msg57065554
3. https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=5334686.msg56917582#msg56917582

Having said the above, I am also interested in NFTs and I have created a few NFT collections of my own and have posted about them in this forum as well.

unfortunately, yes - i haven't had the opportunity or the time to come up with a new concept for the rules.

Hi, I really loved this concept. Hope you can resume it. In relation to the rules, that you would want to set up, I understand that you are facing issues with people editing their response once they see another response. In this regard, you could ask the responders to send you a personal message simultaneously, so that you are able to get an audit trail of the messages. I'm just suggesting since I wished this game was back - you might have already thought about these rules.
32  Other / Beginners & Help / Re: Professional newbie on: April 15, 2022, 07:35:28 PM
What is the likely origin of professional newbies here in forum;
Is it Origin 1? (May already be knowledgeable prior to joining forum)

Is it Origin 2? (Probability of being an account owned by a user who is already a member here)

I believe that most "professional newbies" here are either knowledgeable in one or other fields wherein they are able to contribute. In few cases they might be an alt account of existing members. For example, in my own case, when I joined this forum, I had very little knowledge about technical aspects of Bitcoin. But I was well versed with taxation laws and civil laws which prompted me to write on the legal aspects of Bitcoin/Altcoins in a professional and critical way.

In case of Origin 2 where there are alt accounts, these accounts will try only to rank up first. However, once they reach a certain rank, I believe they would stop writing good articles. I'm assuming this considering that the only incentive to create an alt account is to participate in signature campaigns.
33  Bitcoin / Legal / Re: Bitcoin as a property right and Legal grounds of regulating cryptocurrencies. on: April 15, 2022, 06:57:42 PM
We often hear about regulations and restrictions of cryptocurrencies but we don't know exactly the legal grounds of its restrictions,May it be unconstitutional? Property right is our constitutional right and noone can restrict it without legitimate reason,By this right people can make profit-oriented actions,which are not prohibited.We may agree that its necessary to implement general norms about this but why goverments need to ban it? Is their legitimate reason criminal? but this 'problem' can be easily solved,because they can prevent anonymous trading.

So why did I open this topic? I just want to know will lawyers can do something against this? or Are their actions against cryptocurrencies justified legally?

Hi there! I do see a lot of good questions here. I'd like to take up one of the question being the property right. In this case, most governments don't give right to property in full i.e. your property can be seized by the government at any point in time if they find a genuine reason to do the same (though certain constitutional remedies maybe available). For example: In US, the right to a person may not be deprived of property by the government without “due process of law,” or fair procedures. This does mean that government can seize your assets if it follows due process of law.

Also, I have written an article on grounds to be taken in case of government action against cryptocurrencies here: https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=5334398.msg56908197#msg56908197 . It is a quick 5 min read wherein I have summarized the strong contentions/ground one can put forth before the courts.

We have received queries on where to find the NFTs that we have sent under the Bounty Campaign. For this you can go to any of the NFT marketplaces and find your NFTs in your wallet. We have illustrated on how to find your NFTs on Opensea as below:

1) Login to Opensea with your wallet that has received the NFTs.
2) Then click on your profile where your NFTs should show.
3) If your NFTs are not showing under the tab "Collected", then it might be because these were transferred and are hidden. In such case go to the tab "More" and in the drop down select "Hidden".
4) Under this list you will find your SARC NFTs and you can then list these for sale on Opensea.

Trust this helps. Do let us know if you have any queries.

38  Bitcoin / Press / Re: [2022-02-01] Indian Govt to tax crypto gain at 30% and introduce Digital Rupee on: February 01, 2022, 07:55:49 AM
But on top of that, there is one more thing, all the news have mentioned "income", not profit.
If it's 30% of the income then tax might even slash all your profits and turn your crypto adventure into a total loss.
Rather than putting 1-3% and have some poeple paying this, they throw a 30% to ensure nobody will pay and everyone will be doing tax evasion.

Hindustan times reported this below.

“I propose to provide that any income from transfer of any virtual digital asset shall be taxed at the rate of 30%. No deduction in respect of any expenditure or allowance shall be allowed while computing such income, except cost of acquisition,” the FM said.

So effectively only profits will be taxed. But yes, we need to wait for the Finance Bill to be out to comment further.

I was watching the budget speech live and heard her say this. But nonetheless, will provide a source as well. Thanks for input.

Is this a news from any of the media website? So where's press or news' source?

Just a heads up. Don't just copy something in the internet and paste it on your post without giving the source or you will be banned on this forum.
40  Bitcoin / Press / [2022-02-01] Indian Govt to tax crypto gain at 30% and introduce Digital Rupee on: February 01, 2022, 07:38:03 AM
After a long time of confusion around crypto in India, today the Finance Minister, Nirmala Sitaraman, at the Union Budget presentation has announced that all the crypto gains would be taxed at 30% and only the cost of acquisition would allowed as deduction from sale consideration. However, losses will not be allowed to be set of with other incomes. Further, there is an intention to introduce withholding taxes at 1% on transfers. We would need to wait until the Finance Bill is released to analyze further on specifics and how this would work in practice.

However, the above cannot be construed to be completely legalizing crypto space in India, but rather just a move towards doing the same.

Further, from FY 2022-23 the RBI would be introducing the Digital Rupee which would be a centralized cryptocurrency controlled by the RBI. We would need to read through the Budget memorandum to understand the specifics of this introduction.

I will be reading through the Finance Bill and Budget memorandum and provide more details as the same is released. Stay tuned.
