As more and more details he is telling I think he is just exit scamming the IRS and lying about everything. Somehow they managed to empty his cold wallets too? At the same time his exchange accounts too? Bypassing the 2FA? This is all shady.

This is something i could actually see luke doing too
Then again he has always been pro taxes, but maybe that was just him doing 3d chess online
All I am saying is than onchain doesn’t lie
This doesn't really tell you anything
Yes, you are right but raises many questions. Regardless not sure how they can keep him as the head of BIP gatekeeping any longer.
Also why would you use the Eligius mining pool wallet as a personal hot wallet for accepting donations?
How do you know that this is a mining pool wallet?
Again, it is not clear how this address is being labeled or what i means. It could just mean this was an address that was paid out to by that pool at some point? It doesn't mean its a custodial pool address afaict?
Luke stands to lose too much by trying to play cute to avoid paying taxes. I enjoy dabbling into some responsible conspiracy theories, but it doesn’t add up here.
This sounds like a case of Luke failing to weigh things out properly. I’m hoping lastpass wasn’t a service he utilized.
Should go without saying, if you used LastPass reset password NOW to re-encrypt its DB and move to bitwarden :-) - Luke I have to take it with a pinch of salt, with the ridiculous mask thing etc... people can be smart but common sense ain't so common.
