Good points. So, because you live in Canada and you hodl BTC, what is your long term plan for retirement/spending sats? Will you move to a BTC friendly jurisdiction or just pay the cap gains?

My wife and I talk about this often.

I plan on keeping 95% of my bitcoin forever to hold in the family.

By the time I am ready to start spending, I am quite confident cap gains on bitcoin will be gone.

First El Salvador

Then the United States

Then everyone else

OR, if cap gains remain in Canada, I will just lend against the bitcoin.

My long-term thesis on bitcoin is that banks will prefer bitcoin as collateral. Makes the most sense in every aspect.

So long answer short, I never plan on paying taxes on bitcoin.
