March 7, 2021- ‘They’re laying a trap’: Everything to know about the new Bitcoin tax rules-
“At any time during 2020, did you receive, sell, send, exchange, or otherwise acquire any financial interest in any virtual currency?”
“They’re laying the trap,” says Losi. “Then the hammer is going to come down.”
In other words, if you have been dabbling in Bitcoin, you may very well owe some taxes to Uncle Sam.
Cryptocurrency is treated as property, so in general terms, think of it like a stock: If you bought some and still own it, then there has been no taxable event, and you won’t owe anything on the transaction.
However, if you sold some—presumably at a profit, since Bitcoin has soared to levels of over $48,000, as of this writing—then you have realized gains, and those need to be reported.
“If you sold crypto at a profit and that money is going into your bank account, then you owe taxes,” says Ben Weiss, president of CoinFlip, the nation’s largest network of Bitcoin ATMs. “At this point the government is very aware of crypto cashouts, so don’t assume you can get away with it.”
Like other capital gains, they fall into short-term and long-term buckets, and the tax treatment is different. Short-term gains, where the cryptocurrency was held for under a year, are treated as ordinary income, which implies a range of possible rates up to 37%. -
