technically for us, we pay a tax on the coins when they were created, then we pay another tax at the time of selling minus the fees already paid when it was mined.

bluelemonadecrypto · · #30615

but at 25k a year you pay $1224

hashingpro · · #30616

yeah so its all percents

bluelemonadecrypto · · #30617

we await a ruling from our tax office in Feb, but currently the guidance is we ay when we turn into fiat

hashingpro · · #30618

so the US taxes wants their money now when you make the coin, and then again if when you sell it

hashingpro · · #30619

so you lose it in the meantime they already got their cut

bluelemonadecrypto · · #30620

because the question asked is, if you go out gold detecting do you pay tax on the value of the gold when you find it or sell it?

bluelemonadecrypto · · #30621

but sometimes sense is not what is used by these tax offices and it is more what can be easily measured, rather than what is consistant and/or fair

hashingpro · · #30622

to me if I hold something it has no value only when the person offering to exchange goods puts a price to it, does it become a real value.

hashingpro · · #30623

I practice shrodenier's cat box of finances.

bluelemonadecrypto · · #30624

which is a valid view, but the tax office makes up their own reality to suit themselves

bluelemonadecrypto · · #30625

I make one point though - the only truly anonymous coins are those which are mined (solo) and sent to a wallet that has never been spent from

hashingpro · · #30626

Love, love, you know what love is? Love is an illusion created by lawyer types like yourself to perpetuate another illusion called marriage to create the reality of divorce and then the illusionary need for divorce lawyers.

bluelemonadecrypto · · #30627

and might be spent from some time in the future when you may be in a different country...

lhfx21 · · #30628

So if someone doesn’t live in the US and doesn’t have US greencard can mine in the US tax free?

hashingpro · · #30629

id just send them to myself

hashingpro · · #30630

OR...take out 50K in cash, hide it under my bed, and send my coins to myself.

bluelemonadecrypto · · #30631

I am an engineer, not a lawyer, many places I work calling an engineer a lawyer can get you a punch in the head

bluelemonadecrypto · · #30632

I reiterate - the only truly anonymous coins are those which are mined (solo) and sent to a wallet that has never been spent from

hashingpro · · #30633

I bought coins, 50K I sold them 60K go ahead tax my for 10K profits...pretty sure I got some cash to pay that with.

hashingpro · · #30634

tried to send in a support ticket

hashingpro · · #30635

cant get an email to get into the support system

hashingpro · · #30636

to validate to make an accunt to put in an official ticket

it seems o, but this starts raising some of the more difficult questions of crypto and cross border actions by individuals, at some point it becomes impractical to mange/control

hashingpro · · #30638

if you arent a US citizen you dont pay taxes on money you didnt make form us

dog1965 · · #30639

did I start something here ?

hashingpro · · #30640

if you come to america for school, and have a job here, they tax money from here to you

bluelemonadecrypto · · #30641

we also currently have a thing in Australia, if you pay for a personal use item worth less than 10k with crypto then it is not taxable, mainly because it is to hard to do all the paperwork, for the tax office

dog1965 · · #30642

peace people and fuck the tax man.

hashingpro · · #30643

F the police!

hashingpro · · #30644

and blue yeah that chief thing was a joke

hashingpro · · #30645

they would really have to pay me well to work for John Q lawman.

dog1965 · · #30646

there you go f the police I agree!!!!!

bluelemonadecrypto · · #30647

and their are other precedents, like say stamp collecting, where the difference between an untaxed hobby and a taxable enterprise is the 10k limit

hashingpro · · #30648

non crypto coin collecting

bluelemonadecrypto · · #30649

Ha, you got me twice then

hashingpro · · #30650

sports cards

dog1965 · · #30651

you cant walk down the street without being searched for no reason does not matter what color either.

hashingpro · · #30652

think i got that scammer twice or at least once?

bluelemonadecrypto · · #30653

just remember tax pays for schools and roads and hospitals and stuff

hashingpro · · #30654

even GregG thought that one was funny

hashingpro · · #30655

have you driven a bus across our streets on the way to a hospital?

hashingpro · · #30656

its bad man, really bad.

dog1965 · · #30657

true that let only rich people pay not poor!!!!!

bluelemonadecrypto · · #30658

I just object to paying so much tax because I work long hours and the govt treats me like I am "rich" so I can pay 10 times more tax than someone earning a third of what I do

bluelemonadecrypto · · #30659

takes away the incentive to try

hashingpro · · #30660

you are living ABOVE the means of others

hashingpro · · #30661

no thats fine, you can have my taxes...when you pay me back for the tuition and years of my life learning this trade to make this money.

bluelemonadecrypto · · #30662

I earn enough to pay a shitload, but not enough to pay a tax lawyer...

hashingpro · · #30663

paying the lawyer may be cheaper.

hashingpro · · #30664

ever hear its easier to ask for forgiveness than permission?

bluelemonadecrypto · · #30665

I went to University for 4 years and then trained as a junior engineer for another 6-8 years to get to this point 30 years later

dog1965 · · #30666

I like mad max road worriors ways.

bluelemonadecrypto · · #30667

and now pay well over 100k a year in taxes every year

hashingpro · · #30668

you have a EE right

dog1965 · · #30669

you dont fuckem!!!

bluelemonadecrypto · · #30670

but mainly because I work away from home and do something like 3000 hours a year

hashingpro · · #30671

blue you do safety systems as EE?

dog1965 · · #30672

donatld trump should pay not us.

dog1965 · · #30673

donald

bluelemonadecrypto · · #30674

not because I am greedy, but I work on big plant, like LNG gas, iron ore mining etc and they are not close to the main city

dog1965 · · #30675

I should buy stocks in that company

hashingpro · · #30676

buddy got back from 12 years down under, working for a mining company, aprarently those are all over down there?

bluelemonadecrypto · · #30677

I live in Perth, Western Australia, fly for two hours in a jet to get to work

bluelemonadecrypto · · #30678

and still in the same state, it is huge

hashingpro · · #30679

mining is big, not just crypto the in the ground stuff

dog1965 · · #30680

wow that big.

bluelemonadecrypto · · #30681

but in Perth you need a mill for a decent family house that is not an hours drive from the city

dog1965 · · #30682

the land down under.

bluelemonadecrypto · · #30683

you can drive at 60MPH for two days straight without stopping and still be in the same state

dog1965 · · #30684

living in the land down under.

bluelemonadecrypto · · #30685

in western australia

bluelemonadecrypto · · #30686

and the state population only 2.5mill

bluelemonadecrypto · · #30687

but extremely rich in minerals and oil/gas

bluelemonadecrypto · · #30688

it is way bigger than texas

bluelemonadecrypto · · #30689

bigger than western europe, just as a state

dog1965 · · #30690

how much for electric ???

hashingpro · · #30691

It's not very big. You could walk across it in three or four days. Three or four days! You can walk across New York State in two! Yeah, but this is the Territory. I mean, anything under 1,000 square miles up here is a hobby farm.

bluelemonadecrypto · · #30692

yes and control systems, plus degree is electrical but always written software, was writing Atari games when I was 15 in 6502 assembler, I am old compared to most crypto heads

bluelemonadecrypto · · #30693

our electricity is 30c kWh

bluelemonadecrypto · · #30694

it is a fucking crime, more gas than saudi arabia and we pay that much, go figure

dog1965 · · #30695

expensive to live there thats why only 2.6 million people.

hashingpro · · #30696

did you work on any games at atari by chance?

bluelemonadecrypto · · #30697

we used to be the lucky country, now we are the expensive and overtaxed country

hashingpro · · #30698

or just messing with your own coding, any homebrew games?

bluelemonadecrypto · · #30699

no not at Atari, had a hint of an interview there but my parents woudl not let me go to USA

hashingpro · · #30700

have you SEEN some of the homebrewed 2600 games to come out in the past 20 years?

bluelemonadecrypto · · #30701

commercial games

bluelemonadecrypto · · #30702

atari 400/800

hashingpro · · #30703

ok im in I had a 800 with a 1050 duplicator drive in 3rd grade, 82 or so

dog1965 · · #30704

love 6502 assembelly code cmp,lda,bew.bne’

hashingpro · · #30705

what games for atari 800

hashingpro · · #30706

im sure i played them all we had a tite pirate group and over 4K titles to swap around

bluelemonadecrypto · · #30707

first RISC processor, everything always looked too complicated compared to one accumulator and and X and Y register

dog1965 · · #30708

beq sorry

hashingpro · · #30709

i didnt get into deep assemble compling and programming by registers til I hit college on a vax/vms mainframe

bluelemonadecrypto · · #30710

the only one I can find online is "shaft Raider" and that was a shit thing because the local computer shop owner in our state "produced it" and the game cover had all spelling mistakes and that

dog1965 · · #30711

they just added more registers no ?

hashingpro · · #30712

but the atari aseembler editor was huge for me in gradeschool learning the inner workings of a PC

bluelemonadecrypto · · #30713

after that I wrote games and sold them as source code to companies inthe states and them they modded them and brought them out under their own banner, can’t remember all the names
