But he's rich, so he must be right!

Ok. Going back to sleep, will go to work in a few hours for lulz.

Wouldn't it be weird to work just to pay the taxes on all your bitcoin profits?

amazing you said that...  I've been having 100% of my paycheck taken out in taxes since september in order to cover capital gains taxes this year

Next Big Bang episode about BTC should push it well above $10k from all the attention. Good time to sell.

I used to think he was a dick & all his take over attempts pissed me off but BCH was the best air drop ever. Free money for fuck all.

Here’s to you Rog!

I used to think he was a dick & all his take over attempts pissed me off but BCH was the best air drop ever. Free money for fuck all.

I don't find him as a dislikeable character and I can't say I'm pissed with BCH because it was a clean split / launched as an altcoin in a sense - with an 8mb twist, which is similar to other parameter tweaking that altcoins typically have. That's unlike the classic/xt/s2x bullshit...

But he certainly appears pretty nervous in that interview, he probably lost quite a lot of BTC trying to pump BCH - so the emotional and financial investment is starting to eat him from inside, he can't even stand people saying bcash and takes it ...personally.

As for BCH, the free money from the airdrop was an added bonus, and it also enlightened me on the aspect of price-perception scaling[1]: price was, and still is, suppressed by the "impression" of an arbitrarily high number of $$$ "per share" due to the 21mn coin limit. And it was proven as suppressed due to the btc+forks sum easily having more combined value than btc alone, when this should not be the case.

Hot tip: consider making an in-kind donation of BTC to your favorite charity.

In-kind donations give you the usual deduction, but also don't count as a capital gain (b/c you never sold or traded it - just gave it away).

This means if you have, say, 10BTC you want to liquidate, you can sell 5BTC and donate 5BTC, and the deductions from the donated part will cancel out the tax burden of the sold part.

(Of course it's a little more complicated than that due to the IRS's reporting requirements for in-kind donations of weird stuff. IANACPA, talk to yours, etc.)

That's what I'm thinking. Technically I don't have to pay CG taxes in advance since I didn't owe and got refund last year. This year may be a bit different, but what I need to do now is have my last 4 paychecks go 100% into my 401k to try and cut back on the AGI. And fund up my SEP-IRA from the business profits.

Going to be a long 4 months to figure out taxes.

I was thinking that: In a few years maybe I'll commission the building of a museum of the Hollow Earth in DC next to the Museum of the Bible.

2020: Lightfoot proved the Earth is HOLLOW!

I mean, that's not a bad idea, so long as you steer clear of self-dealing.

I took a lunch break today and thought maybe I'd look to the ancient Chinese Fortune Cookie Gods for direction.



Seems legit.

For something different I would try Bitcoin Tethers: supposedly full-reserve non-redeemable bitcoin as-ifs pegged 1:1.

Note the numbers above are based on the high estimate, and that the low estimate, which is based on only a 30% loss in “hodler” coins, puts the number of lost bitcoins at 2,767,468. Also, both estimates make a critical assumption that coins belonging to bitcoin’s inventor, Satoshi, are gone for good (more on that below).

I'm not sleeping until 10k. No bowel movements either.

I have to admit, this is becoming slightly uncomfortable. Hurry!
