2881  Bitcoin / Legal / Re: You moved to another nation/give up your citizenship, can the IRS still get you? on: August 23, 2022, 06:20:43 AM
I'm assuming an exit tax is only applicable in the event you actually have money in a bank or some sort of financial institution.

You must pay tax on unrealized capital gains on all property if your income or net worth are above certain thresholds.

https://www.irs.gov/individuals/international-taxpayers/expatriation-tax

Apart from that, his friend should be taxed for the trades made.

To give more info.

My friends situation is that they have no idea how much money they owe, the IRS does not know about this money because it's simply potential taxes owed during anonymous crypto trades, maybe.

OP, what you comment has already been discussed in other threads, and it is not a rare situation. There were people who got Bitcoin when it was worth little and now find they have a large capital.

I already commented that it is preferable to act before the capital becomes very large because when it is already large and you have no way to prove where it comes from you run into a problem, and the solutions are two:

1) Pay lawyers and tax advisors to help you to legalize it, which will have high costs and you cannot trust 100% that you are not going to have problems with the justice.
2) Go to another crypto-friendly country, which also has costs. It also has emotional implications.

Good Morning Sir, Actually I have been taking a break from this account for a long time due to my several problems. I faced several dollar trading losses last few months but mine You have to join this forum again to run the family. In this situation I joined a signature campaign where I used to earn money by posting but because of my negative feedback the signature I was rejected from Campion. I would strongly request you to remove your negative feedback

Good Morning Sir.

In the unlikely event that the garbage story you are telling is true, you would have a very easy way to prove it: sign a message from the address:

1DnWG7sL7yWekSS11nZsNNnxyWrwtHNYRs

In this way, Sir logfiles, Sir JollyGood and the others that have left you negative feedback, would realize that they had made a mistake and would delete the feedback.

2884  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: Bitcoins are Not Real — Or how People Blindly Believe Nakamoto's Nonsense on: August 22, 2022, 03:25:43 PM
For that matter, the internet isn't material either, but there are many sites on it, this forum for example. Stocks in the markets have long been digital, not physical, which, like bitcoin, can be displayed on your mobile phone screen. Sending a telegram message also consists of numbers. In fact, a lot of things are digital now, but for some reason bitcoin is the only scam. Strange.
Numbers can be displayed on my mobile phone screen, not electronic coins that people call bitcoins. Those are not real. Stocks are not digital, but the numbers that count shares in stocks can be written on digital media. I recommend you to read the OP instead of just repeating usual nonsense.

Hey Snowshow, why don't you create a forum called bitcoinnotreal.org or something like that and preach that crap there? Seeing as our meager intelligence here fails to see the light that you clearly see, surely you will be very successful preaching that philosophical bullshit there?
2885  Economy / Speculation / Re: Will the price of bitcoin rise again? on: August 22, 2022, 02:01:25 PM
I'm sure the market will rise again, the problem is whether we are patient to wait and buy when the price is cheap like now? Currently I continue to buy bitcoin and I will make a long -term investment, I'm sure the price of Bitcoin can reach $ 100K in 3 years or less.

That's a good mentality.

I understand that we all like to see the price go up and, in fact, I remember times last year when we kept beating ATH after ATH in a somewhat sweet way. But it is what it is, we couldn't be going up forever. If you think in 3, 6 or 10 years Bitcoin is going to be much higher and that's your investment horizon, buy more.
2886  Economy / Economics / Re: U.S dollar almost equal to Euro on: August 22, 2022, 01:51:45 PM
After several weeks of the exchange rate of EUR/USD trending at $1.02, today it crashed even further and practically achieved 1:1 parity. It's currently at $1.0037/€ and wouldn't be surprised if it went even further below. A few weeks ago, some users mentioned that we could also see Euro falling below $1 but many of us thought that it was too extreme. I hope we're not proved wrong.

Today it went down breaking parity. A moment ago it was at $0.98 per euro.

We will see how it turns out. In principle, many things will be more expensive for Europeans in the Euro zone, starting with the fact that raw materials are paid in dollars and this has repercussions on the rest of the chain.

As in everything else, those who have investments will be spared or will not notice it so much, because apart from the fact that well-made investments give returns higher than inflation, those who have a fund indexed to the S&P 500 or the MSCI World will benefit from this rise of the dollar against the euro.
2887  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: Hackers exploit zero day bug to steal from General Bytes Bitcoin ATMs on: August 22, 2022, 05:54:56 AM
I don't quite understand how these kinds of hacks happen. Probably because the Bitcoins are held in a web wallet instead of a hardware wallet, I understand.  I imagine this automates the process instead of someone having to physically handle the hardware wallet to send Bitcoins when someone pays with cash to buy Bitcoin or create a payment address when someone wants to sell.

Surely they would have taken security measures, but not enough in light of this.

Here is a guide explaining the trust system:

LoyceV's Beginners guide to correct use of the Trust system

Although this is a beginner's guide, you may find it a little difficult to understand at first. A trust system is established to make the forum as safe as possible against scams and untrustworthy people.

In this forum it consists of two parts, the trust feedbacks and the trust lists. For more information, read the thread I linked.
2889  Other / Politics & Society / Re: Dugin's daughter killed. Did she really say this? on: August 22, 2022, 05:38:59 AM
The twitter link is inaccessible. Sounds like fake news used to justify murder.

Or an exaggeration, based on what suchmoon says. Surely justifying the killing of Ukrainians had been done in a more indirect way. Both she and her father.

Russian NRA claimed the responsibility.

Yes, according to latest info:

Darya Dugina was killed by partisans from National Republican Army – former Russian parliamentarian

"Ilya Ponomarev, a former member of the State Duma of the Russian Federation (the Russian parliament), said that the so-called National Republican Army (NRA) has claimed responsibility for the murder of Darya Dugina, the daughter of "Putin’s ideologue" Aleksandr Dugin."

...

"Quote from the NRA "manifesto": "We are Russian activists, military personnel and politicians, currently also partisans and fighters of the National Republican Army, and we are outlawing the warmongers, thieves and oppressors of the peoples of Russia!

We declare President Putin to be a usurper of power and a war criminal who has violated the Constitution, unleashed a fratricidal war between Slavic peoples, and sent Russian soldiers to a certain and senseless death.

[…] We will overthrow and destroy Putin! […] We declare all Russian government officials and regional administration officials to be accomplices to the usurper. We will kill every one of them who fails to resign.
"
2890  Other / Meta / Re: Why here people dont want to hear truth ? on: August 22, 2022, 05:34:15 AM
Because crazy people always think they are right and we are not interested in what someone who is out of his mind has to say.

I think your thing is a mix between being sick in the head and binge eating Doritos, otherwise you can't explain why you spend so much time in the forum writing nonsense that nobody is interested in, with a deplorable spelling.

In other forums you would have already been banned for trolling.
2891  Other / Politics & Society / Re: Dugin's daughter killed. Did she really say this? on: August 21, 2022, 05:21:47 PM
Do you really think that the assassination was a result of her statements about the Ukrainians? Maybe that's what the killer wants us to think.

Where do you get that from? Not from what I said.

I am asking if anyone knows Russian and can confirm she said this.
2892  Other / Meta / Re: Does the forum need more merit sources? on: August 21, 2022, 01:25:47 PM
And that merit sources, in that kind of threads, when someone is missing for example 30 merits to rank up, if they see that he is a decent poster they give them to him right away.
I was thinking of (hypothetical) users who need say 400 more Merit to rank up.

That hypothetical scenario looks almost as an oxymoron to me.

Someone who needs 400 merits to rank up would already have the Hero level, so he would have been noticed by the merit sources. The only exception to this would be if he had obtained his first 500 merits airdropped, which I don't know if anyonef got so many merits airdropped.

Short of 400, the only example I can think of of someone being a constructive poster and not getting enough merit is writing alone on a local board where there is no merit source.

But otherwise I don't think more merit sources are needed and I even think some of the current ones have too high an allocation of smerits, because they never give a merit alone. I have seen a minimum of 4 merits per post merited in many merit sources.

In the end if there are more merit sources, and if many give a minimum of 4 merits per post to finish their monthly merit allocation, what you end up with is merit inflation, which is precisely what Bitcoin avoids, inflation.

Giving merits has a component of subjectivity, but the minimum to be given should be one. The fact that there are several merit sources that never give a merit per post indicates inflation.

Hi mate. Next time before you come to the forum to talk about "Alexnder" Dugin's "toughter", please take your meds. Otherwise your analysis is "off" course, difficult to understand.
2894  Other / Politics & Society / Dugin's daughter killed. Did she really say this? on: August 21, 2022, 11:36:25 AM
Dugin's daughter: 'Ukrainians are not humans. They all deserve to die.'

https://twitter.com/WarAgainstPutin/status/1561131023168987136

As some of you may know, there has been an attack in Moscow that seems to have been aimed at the philosopher Aleksandr Duguin, whom some describe as Putin's ideologue.

Since I don't know Russian, I can't verify what the tweet says, but curious if she actually said that, that she is a supporter of "denazifying" when few statements can be made that are more Nazi than that. Mass murder has always started from a dehumanization of the other, be it Hitler versus the Jews, the Hutus versus the Tutsis or other cases. If you see the other as a cockroach, you can crush it without worrying about its feelings and even feeling disgusted when you kill it.

Apart from the affirmation, what do you think? Did they kill her from the inside? Was it the USA? Will there be repercussions?



2895  Other / Meta / Re: Does the forum need more merit sources? on: August 21, 2022, 08:27:37 AM
The question whether or not we need more Merit sources basically comes down to: "Do we think users rank up fast enough?",

I think so.

or better: "Are there users left out from ranking up even though they shouldn't be?".

If there are, they will be few and because they post too much on boards where they are not usually given as much merit as the gambling board.

But come on, people who make a decent contribution to the forum and do not rank up seem to me that there will be few. Even more if we take into account that there are specific threads like yours:

Report unmerited good posts to Merit Source


And that merit sources, in that kind of threads, when someone is missing for example 30 merits to rank up, if they see that he is a decent poster they give them to him right away.

Nice read. Thanks Op, I have been struggling to change my bitcointalk email and password, but I couldn't figure out how to go about it. Thank my goodness that I stumbled on this great tutorial. By tomorrow I'll change both my email and password. Thanks alot.

Can you please drop a tutorial on how to upload image, change the image width such that I will not occupy the whole page and make it appear messy. If possible you can also make a tutorial on how to put images in tables to make it more decent and aligned. Thanks.

I'm missing something else, like being taught how to navigate the forum or how to respond to what is said in a thread.

Another one on how to send merits, with pictures to illustrate would be nice. There has been a reduction in the number of merit sent and it seems to me that it is because people don't know how to send them.
2897  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: Bitcoin as my new payment method on: August 20, 2022, 01:32:38 PM
Sounds like a sugar coated one, but no offence, it would be good if that really what happen as you may know, lots of crypto businesses file bankruptcy just this year.

You said you started bitcoin accepting just this year. What did you do particularly when bitcoin dumps so much on the past few months? How it affects your business?

Also, what wallet particularly you are using. Did you use a wallet/exchange that eventually exchange bitcoin to fiat or you just store it and exchange later on.

I'm usually pretty skeptical of these kinds of stories, but there's something in the story that hasn't made me automatically dismiss it as bullshit.

OP, could you give more details on whether you use a custodial wallet or what kind and if you used an exchange like PX-Z asks?

It would also be helpful to know if you are in a poor country or one of the more industrialized ones. No need to say the exact country if you don't want to.
2898  Bitcoin / Legal / Re: The EU is on the verge of creating a new AML regulator that will oversee crypto on: August 20, 2022, 01:28:14 PM
Sorry. The European Union imposing more regulations? No way.

Seriously now, this is simply another step along the lines of wanting to control the cryptocurrency market (including Bitcoin, obviously) in the same way that the banking sector or the stock market is controlled.

We already saw a preview of what is intended, which is KYC for all transactions without a minimum exempt among other things, the preliminary draft of which has already been approved:

Goodbye, privacy, goodbye, it was nice while it lasted.

2900  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: Singapore is the second country to follow in El Salvador's footsteps, do you agr on: August 20, 2022, 06:35:21 AM
El Salvador made bitcoin a legal tender, Singapore has not made bitcoin a legal tender, the second country that makes bitcoin a legal tender is Central African Republic.

There are many crypto friendly countries that do not make bitcoin a legal tender, but still accepting it as a means of payment and for investment.

That's what I was thinking.

The latest on the subject that I have been able to find is this:

Singapore Plans to Broaden Crypto Regulations After Shakeout

The country is crypto-friendly but now, as a result of the Terra Luna and other catastrophes, plans new regulations to prevent such things from happening again:

"TerraForm Labs and Luna Foundation Guard, the entities behind TerraUSD, list Singapore as their base. Three Arrows was a registered fund management company in the city-state until earlier this year. Vauld, a crypto lender trying to stave off collapse by selling itself, is also headquartered in Singapore."

But no, they do not consider Bitcoin a legal tender.
