'I don't think any of my transactions are illegal.'

If you are in a jurisdiction where you can acquire sats and then later spend/dispose of those sats without incurring a tax liability for any gain in the value of those sats relative to fiat then you are very fortunate.

The vast majority of people living in 'liberal western democracies' do incur such a CGT liability whenever they acquire than later spend/dispose of sats...because tax departments have defined Bitcoin as a commodity and therefore imputed CGT liability on any such transactions. This is a very sly obstruction of the legal use of Bitcoin for MoE.

The extraordinary amount of recording required to comply with such a requirement if you are to use Bitcoin as a daily or even less frequent MoE is effectively going to make it impractical for most people. Therefore most of us who do insist on using Bitcoin as a MoE in 'liberal western democracies' do so illegally...we do not record, compute and pay the CGs on every coffee purchase (or zap on SNs!) because to do so is absurd, but it is also the law in almost all jurisdictions. We are defined, technically, as criminals, by the fiat cartel of government and bankers on every MoE transaction...even if we are not prosecuted. Most citizens will quite understandably not wish to take such a risk...and thus Bitcoin MoE is successfully obstructed.

The other estimated 70% of humanity who live under autocracies, are mostly quite explicitly banned from using Bitcoin as a MoE. Some of them too defy the law, but again the suppression of MoE use is more or less effective upon the majority of citizens.

El Salvador is the only nation I know of where MoE use of Bitcoin does not incur a CGT obligation...there may be other jurisdictions cantons or provinces, but they are surely few.
