Yeah, I know. It makes no sense, but in theory you legally have to report it in the US.
It's funny that some people get charged for "illegal money transmission", but they won't let you legally use it as money.
it's all bullshit, right?
Yep. So don't pay.
Pay the merchant instead haha
I have spent btc twice. I didn't report it. But legally the obligation exists. I mean, we're supposed to report zaps too, haha.
we don't have to report zaps now. orange man said no tax on tips.
Yeah I know it's often an obligation to our self preservation to appease the slavers, but it is also an obligation to deny them when the time comes that we can safely and effectively do so. Make the calculated decision to evade taxes or avoid taxes, based on the risk.
Just don't pay the tax lol! Find a loophole or just forget you did. They can't tax you on stuff you genuinely don't know you ever paid 😂
If you uses more obscured methods like lightning and only spend a normal amount it's not quite tax evasion in my opinion. It's as much tax evasion as selling something on Craigslist and not claiming it.
