1  Bitcoin / Legal / Spending my Bitcoin on GOLD / SILVER?... Do I have to pay tax? on: February 13, 2016, 10:12:08 PM
Hello,

I have started earning bitcoin by doing technical jobs and website design I have saved up quite a bit of balance over the previous 8 months I have not actually sold any into my bank account as I was worried about the tax implications.

If I buy for example GOLD bullion with my bitcoin, does that mean it is tax free?
BUT if I sell my bitcoin for fiat such as GBP or USD I have to pay tax as it's considered income?

Am I correct in saying this, if so would I be better buying gold than cashing out?


I only want to get rid of my bitcoin as the price seems to be dropping
