Ever since I've stopped using CEX, it made me more creative to find ways to exchange with fiat, and then I realized that, wait, why don't I try to pill the people around me so I don't even need to deal with these tools 😂
Now it makes sense why in places where CEXs are not available, the adoption rate is higher and people are more aware of what Bitcoin is really for.

If you’re trying to cheat your taxes via a KYC exchange, you’re gonna have a bad time…

This is so nice of them because now the IRS will notify you to help you out in case you forgot by chance to declare some small transactions in 2017 or did a small mistake here and there /s

Ya theyll tell you they think your math is wrong, send you a bill assuming your cost basis is $0, then leave it on you to prove your actual cost basis via documents that dont exist/you cant get cuz odds are the degenerate CEX you used is bust.

That sounds personal.

It was a clusterfuck of back and forth between exchanges and wallets "back in the days" because I learn by testing things out. So... I think i have done my taxes correctly...
I suppose I now am in the find out phase.

Be correct for State isn't enough.

Never willing to buy any btc on exchange anymore

A reminder that the state can get absolutely fucked, and that taxation is theft.
If you have to pay taxes or feel that you have to, pay as little as legally possible and keep the bigger share of what's left.

CEXes continue to make this space difficult for people. Go self custody your assets and DeFi as an alternative.

Can you explain what this means - DeFi as an alternative? What are some specifics?
reply
Happy to!
For proof of stake blockchains, staking your native token helps secure the network. In return, you earn a reward. That yield varies across different chains (examples: ETH, MATIC, SOL, AVAX). You do this using a self custody wallet rather than a middleman (CEX).
There is no reason to leverage earn products on CEXes when the risk is greater and the yield lower. DeFi beats CeFi in both categories.

Wasn't this already the case?

This is for transactions from 2016 - 2020.

Do you believe in the State that will only take related things during this period? So innocent?

That's not what I said. I'm correcting the assumption being made here that only people from 2024 deserve to get rekt.
