One of my biggest disappointments in the wallet space is how little they pay attention to integrations with bookkeeping, tax and reporting systems.

My QuickBooks opens all my bank accounts and imports all transactions automatically to me so that I can move them to the right tax buckets.

Why can't we have that with ALL lightning wallets?

This isn't rocket science.

Nah, focus on, security, UX and UI and forget about tax reporting altogether. If you’re worrying about reporting your zaps to the IRS you’re doing it all wrong 😑

💯

Lol. I have 2 companies, 2 foundations and my personal stuff to work through. Investors, donors and my wife all want to see those reports... Government is just another one.

Oh shit! I didn’t know you had a wife!

Yeah you need to get your shit organized.

Everybody is an Alpha until their wives show up.

Can confirm this. 🤣🫂💜

😂👊

too true

I have a script that dumps my lightning node into ledger-cli format[1]

works great. lots of benefits to running your own node.

It would be nice if it exported into things like Gnucash. I have 1000s of accounts there to move things into. :(

Ask chatgpt to give you a Python scipt to convert from one to the other, or use the QBO api to access the data and export it to another system (like frontaccounting). You don't need to commit to it, export your data and see if you like the new software.

Regarding btc wallets:

Devs focusing on compliance.. What could do wrong?

Tax is theft.

Also hard to be for bitcoin and support government at the same time.

So many bitcoiners ride the fence and slip to each side when it suits them best.

They risk nothing and comply when told to.

They are not bitcoiners.

The fact that tax is theft is completely irrelevant. I still need to organize my finances to myself, my shareholders, my donors. It's all the same system.

Organization is key in life. 🫂💜

yeah we desperately need local private accounting wallet software

because we refuse to pay taxes

Lol, so that's why bitcoiners disappear? Are they all going to jail?

😂 Perhaps, likely, yez

It's called "forced hodling"

reminds me company RSUs. Unvoluntary long positions

Quickbooks is a privacy disaster. I have to disagree.

Use the desktop version then. Or Gnucash. Whatever floats your boat.

Clams?

I didn’t know you worked for the government…

Today is an opportunity to embrace the freedom of financial independence and the potential for innovative change. Embark on a journey that aligns with values of autonomy and efficiency, opening doors to exciting new horizons WITHOUT TAXES!!!!

This is why I love nostr:npub1ex7mdykw786qxvmtuls208uyxmn0hse95rfwsarvfde5yg6wy7jq6qvyt9 and why I desperately want them to implement NWC functionality. I understand it's not self-custodial, but using it like I would cash by only keeping as much in my wallet as I'm willing to lose feels like a decent trade off for ease of reporting and spending.

I'm here for it!! 🚀🌕

:)

Is direct apk download possible?

Nice ask. Add to the queue, nostr:nprofile1qqsvf646uxlreajhhsv9tms9u6w7nuzeedaqty38z69cpwyhv89ufcqpzamhxue69uhhyetvv9ujucm4wfex2mn59en8j6gpzemhxue69uhhyetvv9ujuurjd9kkzmpwdejhgqg5waehxw309aex2mrp0yhxgctdw4eju6t0t25cfd. It will make you more resilient to the PlayStore's BS.

Put it on Zap Store/Obtainium for Android. Since versions are immediately available, you can reward freedom lovers with the fastest access to new versions.

If the systems you build comply with tyranny, then you are a tyrant and a criminal in the eyes of God

taxation is a criminal act, the best category to put it into is extortion

anyone who is wasting a lot of their life complying with government and promoting such compliance is not a leader for freedom

now, this vitor, he just went 🚩 on me over some KYC shit the other day, and now he is chanting taxation compliance tools? 🚩

is he gonna go for a trifecta next, and talk about voting or something?

Seems likely now

i'm a bit surprised, i thought "yeah he's just a jerk" but this is far beyond

Jerkiness grows out of internal dissonance. Being a stooge for criminals would certainly cause that. Not saying he is, butttt.... ^

yeah, i'm seeing two red flags 🚩 🚩 i have observed in my life that it is very rare you get two without the third

and i always was repulsed by his narcissism, so maybe he's gonna regale us with a 4th flag by my standartds

bro. ew.

You can connect your exchange to a place that does all that tax things for you. You link up your exchange and it does tge rest.. not sure the name of the service
