I don't understand this. Rather than pay a (yet to be proposed) higher capital gains tax, Americans would pull their money out of the markets right now and put it into what? Is the plan to make no capital gains in the future?! Plenty ways for plenty people on the border range of having to pay something like that (if it passes which is probably 50-50 I'd say) to think of other ways of making money. A crypto or stock whale could draw money out now and invest in property now with guaranteed rental income rather than Biden hurting an entire portfolio of assets in one go etc. The closer taxes get to the 50% threshold, the more people will just think I'm not going to bother and wait for a gain that may or may not happen if I have to pay that much. A large part / most of Bitcoin and stock prices are made up of confidence ratings. Or just take money out now, pay the 20% move to a tax heaven and have it done asap with without a threat of ever having to pay more in the future. Seems logical to me.

Is the plan to make no capital gains in the future?! We don't have a capital gains tax, but as far as I understand you'd pay the current tax if you withdraw now. So, if you gained $100 and tax is 20%, you owe $20 in taxes now if you realize the gains. Then you start from scratch with no gains, and taxes go up to 40% only on your future gains (not on your past gains). I never really got this though: if the tax is fixed, why would you want to postpone paying the tax, if you have to pay it eventually anyway? Unless you're hoping for the tax to go down.

Maybe it's just me being Italian, but taxes are going down. Numbers go up, taxes go up. If the taxes are big enough, you don't pay the taxes. If the taxes are big enough you can find ways to avoid taxation. Only poor people pay taxes. Basically this: https://twitter.com/btc_archive/status/1385324038034182154?s=21

Gonna hit the HODLnest and keep on the HODL. Just looking at support levels. I'm not selling but people are stupid and we know what happens with FUD news and a panic. Hope we don't dip below 50K at all but if it does who knows where it goes.

Its all just noise and indicators to lose money or to make people scared etc nothing more... People user account increase, halvings--> decreasing supply, scarcity, FIAT out of thin air,inflation .... just give me this above whatever TA BS anyday...

That 43k roughly matches a 30% correction from ATH, which is traditionally the kind of pullback we get in a pull market. I think 45k is a safer bet which is more of an exact 30% correction. Do I want it to go down there? No. Will I buy more corn if it does? Yep.

Is the plan to make no capital gains in the future?! Exactly. Why sell and pay more than 50% tax in some states (43.4% in TX) on above 400k (or is it a mil)? The position that you don't have to sell is further solidified by this. I wouldn't like to pay 50% on what came from holdling through blood, sweat and tears and I legally wouldn't have to if I DON'T SELL. For some, like Bawb, it is too late as they will make it retroactive to Jan 1, 2021, no doubt (if it passes). A big boost to all btc lending services. However, if your btc collateral is liquidated, then you would have to pay cap gains taxes: https://www.forbes.com/sites/shehanchandrasekera/2021/03/17/how-are-crypto-loans-taxedOf course, there could be even more wicked schemes about yearly taxation of unrealized gains, but i would deal with that when it materializes.

Been playing the game since 2013/2014. Too experienced to be panicked. $100k is where the eyes are now.
