In that case I wish those 'bitcoiners' hyperinflation. CGT is the worst type of tax, because it taxes efforts to escape inflation. The higher the inflation rate, the more you pay. So it incentivizes the government to push for higher inflation.
You buy a house for $1m, a year later it's worth $100m because the $ is worth 1% of what it was before, you've made 99% 'profit' and pay tax effectively on the entire value of the house for something that looks like a profit on paper, but isn't one. It's just a successful preservation of purchasing power, so now they have to tax you to make it unsuccessful.
And it's the most immoral tax, because it lies to you that preserving purchasing power is a gain. How brazen must one be to imply that!
It perpetuates the lie that having more units of a shitcoin = being richer.
It comes from the same gang as the money printers.
