I have seen many people who ask for tax advice and ask a lot of questions. Unfortunately, some members answer them wrongly, do yourself a favor and read some of IRS FAQ’s crypto tax on this link -----> https://www.irs.gov/individuals/international-taxpayers/frequently-asked-questions-on-virtual-currency-transactions.

And the golden rule: Do not seek tax advice from unknown people on the Internet.

And don't forget the other golden rule. Consult a tax professional based on your needs.
To this day I don't understand people who will drop $500 on a bottle of wine with dinner, but not $250 for a 1 hour consultation with a competent tax accountant.
Seriously, it can save you time and money later.

And keep in mind the Michael Saylor playbook, you don't owe tax if you take a loan against your crypto instead of selling it.

It's very simple, we don’t even know if the answers refer to the same country and same taxation structures. So it really is hard to seek advice from everyone. Much better if you will seek and consult the tax professional so that they will guide you because they know more than us.

I guess that’s the reason why some answered incorrectly as they assumed that all of the structures are the same. But they definitely don’t.

And the golden rule: Do not seek tax advice from unknown people on the Internet.

Exactly, because they only based on what rumors they heard. Not on the fact.
