The new IRS requirements on how to manage your bitcoin and have explicit coins separated by wallet according to their cost basis is so horribly ignorant and nonsensical that I don’t even know how to explain it.

Is there still a IRS bounty for cracking Monero? They know they will drown in work, so they try to make people comply.
It's an ungraceful end of the state. Unfortunately non fungible coins + AI enable those seeking power to further control the people.
Opt-out. Encrypt everything. Utilise Monero.

MOAR COINJOINS
What gives them the right to force us to consolidate funds?
How can they tax information?
Does knowing twelve words mean you own bitcoin?
What if someone else knows my twelve words?
Who owns it? Who pays taxes in a multiparty multisig?
What is transacting? Is it signing a TX? Broadcasting it? At what point does it incur capital gains?

Last time in checked the US has no face on a bitcoin. Fuck em.
joinstr.xyz
this is the way
is it usable yet?
Lemme rewrite that for the plebs reading the comments in this thread.
JOINSTR is COINJOIN OVER NOSTR
I know its confusing still for the non-technical plebs 
, but evolutions will come soon. Pay attention to @npub1v6qj...nzyr

How does it work? | joinstr
This page has several pieces of incorrect information
Tor is required if you cannot trust the relay, which is most likely the case
A mechanism without fidelity bonds would require you to tie your Nostr identity to your CJs as the fidelity bond (not preferable)
1. Protocol supports VPN and Tor. It's not necessary to use Tor. You can check the kotlin implementation for VPN usage.
2. Joinstr protocol will use AUT-CT for sybil resistance: 
If you read the NIP for joinstr you will realize that new keys are generated for each event and pool messages use encrypted channel (shared key).
Nostr identity is never linked to coinjoin in the protocol.

It is also possible to reuse fidelity bonds if some joinmarket makers want to provide liquidity in joinstr, not necessary though: 
Market makers in joinstr
Providing liquidity and earning fees by creating pools
Joinmarket doesnt require fidelity fonds, theyre optional. It also has equal outputs, otherwise whats the point?
Just installed joinstr and it wanted complete control of VPN config. Why?
To create a new VPN profile. If you have further questions, please join the simplex chat group.
Can you share a joinmarket cj transaction with all outputs having same amount?
That comparison chart is completely nonsensical and obviously written with full bias
tell that to @npub1v6qj...nzyr 😉
I don't need suggestions from people who work on vulnerable coinjoin implementations.
I don't want to waste my time. He spends too much energy with vague, overreaching statements and fuds other people's work constantly.
This not just the IRS, but a global issue with all tax departments . It needs to stop.
Bitcoin is money! And we should be free to use it how we see fit at any given time or space on this planet.
I think i just got retarded
send IRS a Revocation of Election and your are out. Income taxes are voluntary. The 1040 is an annual contract. Dont sign it.
I haven't seen anything about this. I want to see the hourly dca group have their 15k sat utxo lol

Oh wow something more retarded than what Australia gets up to
I recently bought more hardware wallets to have fun testing bitcoin transactions, etc. At this stage in my life, I'm HODLing, not selling bitcoin. Honestly, what would I sell it for? Maybe some day I will, when I find something worth buying, but that day has not arrived. The IRS is out of control. I sure hope this gets rolled back in the new administration. What an over-reach!
Downstream effects of radical and unwise transparency resulting in very deficient pseudonymity and zero privacy.
A law is pretty meaningless if it can't be enforced.
It cannot be enforced without surveillance.
Zero privacy makes it pretty easy to enforce.
#monero fixes this.
Monero alone doesn't fix this, remember to also avoid all KYC crypto touch points.
That is ideal for a few other reasons yes, but the point stands that you cannot be traced for eternity even if you KYC'd and used Monero, which seems sensible to me.
Luckily soon it won't be possible to buy Monero with KYC #ThisIsTheWay #DontRiskItBisqIt
