Are my crypto profits taxed?

Well yes. Crypto is taxed like stocks & other types of property. When you sell for a profit, you are required to pay tax on the gains. It’s called capital gains tax.

Income from crime is also taxed. You steal a car and sell it, gotta pay tax on that.

Easy if you just tax billionaires

the reason this is BS is because the IRS is curve fitting to get me re revenue.

"Yeah, crypto is property, not currency, but we still gonna not allow like kind exchanges lol"

I have no idea what are you talking about. Crypto is either currency or it’s a capita asset. Those are the two choices.

Either of those results in taxation when disposed. So yes, when you buy the car, you are taxed. That is true no matter what the asset you trade for the car is unless it is USD currency.

Edit: to be clear in your example are you complaining that if you bought bitcoin for $10 in 2010 and user said bitcoin to buy a $10k car now, that the $9990 in gain is taxable? Because that’s nuts if that’s the complaint. That’s true of every other possible item other than US currency that you have under your bed.

It’s considered “property” for federal income tax purposes. 🥸

Can someone explain why this is a joke? Don’t see why there’s a reason capital gains shouldn’t apply

Thailand taxes capital gains with some exclusions (publicly traded investments) as well as having a territorial system.

Quick google search seems to indicate there’s withholding on crypto.

Home reno financing question. Have a big project coming up in the $120-150k range. Funding sources are:
- 90k from a heloc around prime
- 10k from a credit card that offers promo checks at 2-3% for 12-18 months
- 375k in a brokerage
- 5-6k per month cash that I can put towards the project, loans, or brokerage

I don't want to stop funding the brokerage because my FIRE plan is less numbers based than "hoard like dragon until it's enough" but maybe I should... How would you optimize?
