Thank you very much.
Not a good sign.

Not at all. I am very pissed atm. But I knew that had to happen. I just thought crypto was still minor enough to not warrant that kind of new rules. I guess adoption is already reaching levels where they think they need to use the "tools" at their disposal.

Governments would never let everyone go and switch to a different kind of asset they can't control in some way. Making kind of "ilegal" to have "hidden assets" (unreported to them) they secure they can control the flow (and taxable events) of those.

Also, this is what happens when a radical left wing alliance takes over the government as it has happened in Spain: The horror.

Fucking communists.

That is why we need the infrastructure in place to bypass them completely.


Working with institutions is only going to lead to more of the same.

Bypass governments? Near 100% habitable land on earth is already government controlled. At the most you can choose which one do you prefer to live under...

The one that only takes 20% of my corns at most. So not one of the western ones.

Most western countries "only" take "around" 20%. Some even less.

Tbh I am more ok with paying that tax when I do sell than with the obligation to report my "hodlings". That REALLY pisses me off. I don't want them to fucking know how much (or how little) BTC I do have! What's next? Be forced to let them "custody" it for me so that I don't have a boating accident in the future?

No they don't. In my country we are taxed at over 80%. No tax on bitcoin yet, but there will be, and I expect it to be something like 60%.

[Globb0]

I know somebody who has used Kraken to cash out large sums & he’s had no problems.

We should get ready for the glorious cashout day which is coming soonish so any hints on where to do it safe, fast and efficient are welcome! Exchanges? OTC? Anything else? 

OTC is supposed to be the best, speak to gentlemand.

off the chart?

over the counter?

something else?

[bitserve]

Da fuck! What country are you in?!?? Never saw capital gains taxed so fucking high. That percentage is ridiculous even for regular salary income FFS!

Also, if you are completely sure you are not taxed right now (which I doubt) then sell it all and rebuy so that you "upgrade" your cost price before that is considered a taxable event.

[Ibian]

Da fuck! What country are you in?!?? Never saw capital gains taxed so fucking high. That percentage is ridiculous even for regular salary income FFS!

50% income tax, give or take depending. 25% sales tax. Hidden taxes on everytyhing, not sure how much but not less than 50%. In total, 80-90% taxation.

Which is why there is no fucking way I will get off with ONLY 20% when they get around to bitcoin. States always want More.

Denmark, by the way.

Jesus, I have just checked and it is true Denmark has outrageous taxes! Not as much as you say, regarding CAPITAL GAINS (which is what you should be taxed for your Bitcoin profits), but still ridiculously high. Sorry is all I can say about that situation.

Denmark has one of the highest tax rates in the world, which is often mentioned as one of the biggest objections against the Danish welfare model. The average annual income in Denmark is about 39,000 euros (nearly $43,000) and as such, the average Dane pays a total amount of 45 percent in income taxes.

Personal Income Tax Rate in Denmark averaged 60.45 percent from 1995 until 2018, reaching an all time high of 65.90 percent in 1997 and a record low of 55.40 percent in 2010.

Denmark. Share dividends and realized capital gains on shares are charged 27% to individuals of gains up to DKK 48,300 (2013-level, adjusted annually), and at 42% of gains above that. Carryforward of realized losses on shares is allowed.

Bitcoins are not a real currency
The National Tax Board has established that, in a taxation context, bitcoins cannot be equated with 'real' currencies such as the euro, dollars and kroner. Therefore, bitcoins are not covered by the rules in the Danish Capital Gains Tax Act.

Tax on profits, deduction of losses
If you are among those who jumped on the bandwagon and invested in one or more bitcoins, you must report any profits as personal income. Similarly, you can deduct a loss as a deduction. In round numbers, the tax on profits is approx. 53%, while the losses are deducted by about 28%, as the deduction that can be achieved is only a tax allowance.

If you invested in bitcoins as a company, profits and losses are taxed as regular corporate income.

If you have profits or losses from the cryptocurrency, we recommend that you report the amount under comments in your tax return, until a legal practice has been announced by the Danish Customs and Tax Administration (SKAT).

If you are unsure, it is important to find out what to do with your profit or loss. Among other things, you can find out by requesting a binding answer from SKAT, which costs DKK 400. Here, you can have your legal position clarified.

Absolutely ridiculous. Now I understand why you seem to be so pissed most of the time

There will always be some form (even if informal) of governments.

And I am sure there will be basically the same type of governments before I die. So nothing will change for ME (or you) for all practical purposes.

The majority. The majority are idiots. This is not just me being pissed all the time, it's the pareto principle. As the number of people increase, the number of dipshits increase exponentially and the number of normal people increase linearly. And there has never been more people than now.

From what I understand, most European countries have taxation based on country of residency. So, you should be able to get residency in 0% country, like Malaysia or Panama, stay there for a year, dump your bitcoins, then move back. All 100% legal and tax free.

HOW MUCH BITCOIN YOU NEED TO BE IN THE RICHEST 1% OF BTC HOLDERS

According to the BlockWorks Group analyst, you only need 0.28 BTC to be in the top 1% richest of the world (in BTC terms).

No more than 5-10 million people will ever own a full Bitcoin

This naturally implies an unfair uneven distribution of the wealth as “whales, hodlers, nations and institutions” hold the lion’s share.

  Bitcoin is distributed perfectly fairly based on the time, effort and passion each person put into acquiring and holding their share.  The only natural implication here is that most people ignored Bitcoin until it was too late for them to afford their "fair" share.  Do people get paid to write this tripe?

Updated OP.
I believe that you got carried away by the word "unfair". Now I have fixed it for you.

Almost everything in the world is unevenly distributed and someone will always complain that something is unfair.

The point is not about the distribution, it is about the minimum requirement of Bitcoin to be among the 1% BTC rich. The reason I shared the article is that I'm very happy that I'm close to hodling 0.28BTC and will be one of the 1% BTC rich peeps by this year or the next if Bitcoin doesn't rise parabolically. It was a 2+ year-long journey for me.

PS: Not sure if "carried away" is the apt word, but I tried. English is not my first language.

Yeah, I'm actually looking into moving permanently somewhere else. It won't be an asian country, they are just too different. Either eastern europe, which I'm in the process of exploring, or failing that south america.

The real bitch of a problem in all this is to find a place where people speak proper english.

The bitcoin tax discussion is very relevant, and as bitserve says, probably not long before it becomes widespread. A few merits are due - I'll use the special ones, since the boring ones are hard to come by right now.
