Here is the good news if you are in the U.S. The growth in value of your bitcoin is taxable under capitol gains tax. Just as if you bought a stock or anything that appreciates, when you sell or spend that item you must pay. Capitol gains varies but is often 10% (it may be zero depending on your tax bracket). That is way better than the 30-35% you probably give up for working your ass off. Cap-gains are a rich persons tax and so is much lower than you are used to paying.

It depends upon on how you use bitcoin,if you buy a digital good and pay it with bitcoin, I don't think that there is tax in it, but if you use itto buy physical goods there is VAT or if you pay an electric bill, there are lots of tax in it such as the tax on transmission charges and many more, the thing is the tax is not imposed on bitcoin but on where it is spend as fiat..

Every government has its way of dealing with digital currency. Many countries already have regulation in place while others are working on it. You need to try and learn what's the government position regarding bitcoin and other digital currencies in your country

Bitcoin does not operate within a national boundaries. In this regard it's similar to bank notes and it's above the law of every individual nation state.
If you want to, you can pay taxes to your government, or some other government if you don't like yours. In any case, the payment activity you're doing is happening on a mining facility. The company running the mining facility already pays taxes for electricity, staff, so it's pointless to pay tax twice for the same already taxed service.

They pay taxes just for the electricity not for Bitcoin, because not their obligation to pay taxes for bitcoin. Yeah, it's pointless to pay tax twice when you even don't need to pay it at all.

Exactly, as being international, btc can't be limited by national boundaries! It means you don't pay direct taxes, though you're still subject to indirect taxation of course.

To my concern I haven't heard of tax imposed on bitcoin. Just the taxes imposed for electric charge consumption has a effect on the bitcoin mining which at times leads to reduced mining strategies

I don't know where you guys got your law degrees, but in the U.S. that is absolutely no defense at all. "Because it has no national boundaries"? So gold has no tax also? And as far as double taxation consider this. If I earn a dollar then I must pay tax on that income. Now if I hire you for that same dollar then it is taxed again. In fact if that dollar floats around the economy for years paying lots of people then it is taxed over and over again, not just once. Basically any wealth you make is taxable. Even if you find a gold ring with your metal detector (I think I have read this example) technically you must pay tax on that ring.

Well some people wont be able to exchange their porfolio of crypto into fiat as the banks and all financial system will ask where the money camed from,those who exchanged all their coins to fiat and made huge ammount lost a part to the country as fees,they clean the money paying the interest around the financial market.

Since tax is organised by goverment so it depends on every country. Bitcoin can be considered as digital currency, so I'm sure there is country that have rules about it.

Depends on what country you're living in. You'd have to check if you need to. Where I'm from when you're into bitcoin you have to report that you are and how much you've made, depending on how much profit you got, you'd have to pay taxes over that.
I thought taxes the guy meant that were fees, but I was wrong. and I thought bitcoin has not taxes, but it has. well I think it means that bitcoin is legal already in your country if you have to pay taxes. In my country we don't need to pay taxes of bitcoin.

I am not a legal expert in any way but I guess online retailers that are accepting Bitcoin payments must include their profits in the annual tax report as it's revenue generated by them. As for the regular user I don't think it's compulsory to include your Bitcoin stash in your tax report. All Bitcoin enthusiasts are so eager to keep their money secret haha
