1  Bitcoin / Legal / Re: IRS Releases Tax Rules on BTC on: March 26, 2014, 11:34:18 AM

Major ruling - BTC is property, not currency.  Basically means if you mine it at $600/coin, and then buy a product that costs $1,200 down the road for 1 BTC, you owe taxes on that $600 gain.


As Bitcoin users have to track their transactions each time, so would it affect the personal transaction rate or not?
