Frankly, asset or currency, I don’t think governments have the right to assess the value of something and then tax you on their assessment. That’s how they play scams like inflating property values to force people off properties via property tax.

My point was that anyone who's living on Bitcoin using Bitcoin as their currency by choice shouldn't pay capital gains tax on the value increase of their currency vs the hyper inflating bullshit others are using.
There is no gain, 1 BTC = 1 BTC
Okay. We are making the same points and talking past each other when we are in agreement. I said the exact thing. I just applied it more universally to any and all non-inflating assets.
