    It will be a taxable event and planning to deposit and convert at BlockFi, Gemini and Coinbase (and possibly Celsius Network) to USDC, GUSD, PAXOS and no Tether for easy tax reporting 1099 stuff.

    Bitcoin Price Thread

    Just a question, how come your model is only waiting for a bitcoin crash? Bitcoin doubled in less than a month, seems you could have profited when it broke previous ATH $20K and went long. By the way, I'm gonna repeat a new theory that's emerging on this bull market. This may be different than...

    Bitcoin Price Thread

    1. This is a very good question and I think the answer is similar to someone who bought Amazon after the Nasdaq bubble burst in early 2000's and still holding. We were planning to sell $200K plus $40K (for a Tesla purchase), and after more discussions, we decided on $100K + $50K. The reason is...

    Bitcoin Price Thread

    My friend, who I told to buy bitcoin in 2013 for $100, was urging me to sell at $1000 in early 2014. You can just imagine how much I had to deal with when bitcoin crashed and kept going down finally bottoming 2 years later in 2016 at below $200 So again, in 2017 when bitcoin hit $5000, he was...

    One River Makes One of the Largest Cryptocurrency Trades in History

    Forgive me if I misunderstand your question. Are you saying sell now and buy back later? Speaking for myself, I suck at timing, and 2, selling now for $ is a taxable event and to time the dip is not so easy. I have 2 posts explaining my position on this when I went to full hodl mode end of...

    One River Makes One of the Largest Cryptocurrency Trades in History

    Unpopular opinion: The price of bitcoin is cheap when taken in the context of a market cap. Retail buyers see $35K per bitcoin and say it's too high, maybe when it goes back to $10K or $1K, they will buy some. Institutions see $35K per bitcoin and see market cap of less than $700B for a new...

    Sorry... Bitcoin is not Gold and Litecoin is not Silver
