I’ve read from several outlets that most ETF volume has been retail and almost no institutions. If that’s true, that means that this sect of “retail” was too uneducated to buy bitcoin before the ETFs so it’s not surprising they’d sell at the first sign of a dip. Noob behavior.

There is a 10 year statute of limitations for IRS to bring suit or claims against individuals. This is the final year they could've brought charges for the 2014 exit tax evasion. That explains why they didn't wait longer, but why they waited this long, I have no idea.

"We hold these truths to be self-evident, that all men are created equal, that they are endowed by their Creator with certain unalienable Rights, that among these are Life, Liberty and the pursuit of Happiness.--That to secure these rights, Governments are instituted among Men, deriving their just powers from the consent of the governed, --That whenever any Form of Government becomes destructive of these ends, it is the Right of the People to alter or to abolish it, and to institute new Government, laying its foundation on such principles and organizing its powers in such form, as to them shall seem most likely to effect their Safety and Happiness. Prudence, indeed, will dictate that Governments long established should not be changed for light and transient causes; and accordingly all experience hath shewn, that mankind are more disposed to suffer, while evils are sufferable, than to right themselves by abolishing the forms to which they are accustomed. But when a long train of abuses and usurpations, pursuing invariably the same Object evinces a design to reduce them under absolute Despotism, it is their right, it is their duty, to throw off such Government, and to provide new Guards for their future security." - The Declaration of Independence

I’m no expert in this area of law but I feel like profit may be too narrow for the intent of the statute. There are probably MSBs they want fully registered that don’t make a profit off of every part of their business, so they could break the business into two and only register the profit generating part. Venmo is the first example that comes to mind. AFAIK they don’t profit off anyone sending money from their Venmo balance to another Venmo account. I could be completely off here though.

The tornado cash case is going to likely set the precedent for what “money transmitting” means for purposes of bitcoin. The case will mostly hinge on how “transfer” should be defined within the meaning of Section 1960. As these screenshots show, the government argues that it means “by any and all means” and that “control” is not a prerequisite to be considered a transferor. They use examples like a USB cable being a transferor of data and a frying pan transferring heat from a stove.
By this logic, anyone operating hardware or software which Bitcoin runs through could be deemed a money transmitting business. However, this is obviously overly broad. My guess is, if the judge has common sense, he will see that a line needs to be drawn somewhere. The easiest line to draw is by making control a prerequisite. Otherwise the governments reasoning opens up liability to almost any tech company providing software or hardware.
The line of reasoning is simple:
Are dell and Microsoft money transmitting businesses because their laptops and software enable you to send money to someone in e-commerce? No. What about your ISP whose internet connection enables the transfer of data to complete an internet purchase? No. Why? Because they aren’t exercising control over the transaction, they are just providing the rails that make it possible - and have no further involvement. https://image.nostr.build/dff02746f1501ac8ce1b0e4126425f78f729300ec23186da1bf139621255f027.jpg https://image.nostr.build/fbc34809599843513d098f06a52ecb5e2e39c80e81f7def030089b778329fb3d.jpg

Samourai was a mixer and openly advertised their service for sanction evasion and other illegal purposes on Twitter . Phoenix has done nothing of the sort. This accomplishes nothing but letting the government regulate an industry out of pure fear. That’s not how you win.
Perhaps you should sell your crystal ball and legalese services to other Bitcoin service businesses so they can all shut themselves down before anything even happens to them! That would sure help the ecosystem.

No, only within the reportable year. 1099-DA would go into effect for tax year 2025 so the forms would be filed as part of taxes due April 15, 2026.

2024-04-25 20:39:02

The past week has revealed the government’s plans for a full attack on Bitcoin. IRS form 1099 seeking identifying information on virtually all transactions, the seizing of samourai to inhibit privacy, Biden’s proposal for unrealized cap gains tax to disincentivize holding an inflation hedge, and the FBI alert today about avoiding non-KYC. All of these work in conjunction to steer people away from holding and using bitcoin and invade the privacy of anyone who does hold and use it. We are undoubtedly in the “then they fight you” stage.

This is a coordinated effort by all agencies to eliminate privacy in Bitcoin. #note1l5s…ycuy
