It seems with some of the options available, you really can make a living out of Bitcoins these days.

Does anyone currently do this for a full time living?  And if so, would they have any recommendations on how to deal with the tax man? 

I'm in the UK if that makes any difference, very interested to hear peoples experiences.

Each block is stacked on top of the previous one. Adding another block to the top makes all lower blocks more difficult to remove: there is more "weight" above each block. A transaction in a block 6 blocks deep (6 confirmations) will be very difficult to remove.

If you're making significant profits from bitcoins I'd suggest consulting a tax specialist.

I reported all USD received in exchange for BTC as other income received on my tax form last year...

I didn't WANT to, but I really don't need to be audited and lose more money over that.

Donations are welcome!
