    US cracks Bitcoin Ponzi scheme, involving 722 million

    Posted: 10 Dec 2019 11:46 PM PST

    The U.S. Department of Justice announced on Tuesday that it had cracked a $ 722 million bitcoin "Ponzi scheme". Even more surprising is that the scam was run by only 3 men. The US Department of Justice claims that this is a "high-tech Ponzi scheme" operated by the "BitClub Network". From April 2014 to December this year, the scam gang used false Bitcoin mining revenue to attract unsuspecting Investors. Deceive them to invest and reward them for recruiting new investors. The defendant in the case, Matthew Brent Goettsche, called the investor a "dumbass" in a correspondence with his associates and said that he "established the entire model on the back of an idiot".

    UK General Election - Capital Gain Tax implications for UK cryptocurrency users

    Posted: 11 Dec 2019 12:18 AM PST

    Posting this as it might be of interest to anyone from the UK who buys and sells cryptos.

    I'd been wondering how to vote on Thursday and as a UK user of cryptocurrencies the capital gains tax policies of each party were of interest to me.

    I checked out the manifestos of the Conservatives, Labour and Lib Dems.

    Labour are planning a massive increase in public spending funded by large tax increases. One big tax change is that they plan for Capital Gains Tax to be brought into line with Income Tax. CGT for sellers of cryptocurrency is currently a maximum of 20% of your gains. Labour plan to move the maximum up to 50% of your gains.

    Similarly, the Lib Dems plan to remove the CGT tax free allowance and tax CGT at the same rates as Income Tax, so again, a large increase in CGT.

    I couldn't find any specific CGT proposals in the Conservative's manifesto, but their proposals for public spending are far more modest than those of Labour, and so they would need to raise less through taxation. Ideologically the Conservatives have always been a party that seems to believe the best way forward is not to raise public spending and fund that with massive tax rises but instead to try to create the conditions that encourage the economy to grow (e.g. lowering the tax burden on businesses and individuals) and generate more wealth for everyone that way. Whether you agree with that approach or not is a matter of ideology and political preference, but it seems the Conservatives are the only major party that haven't proposed a major increase in CGT.

    Labour's plan of big tax increases for the highest earners in order to fund more public spending seems fair at first glance, but the problem for me is that their proposed CGT changes will hit not just the very wealthy but also those on very low incomes - if they happen to have receive a one-off major windfall that's subject to CGT - and this is exactly where crypto gains come in.

    Anyone who might be on a very low income, but has bought cryptocurrency, held through a massive bull run, and then sold for a large profit, could have half of their gains taken away by the taxman under Labour and Lib Dem proposals. Where someone only has a very low income, to me it seems unfair to take away half of their once-in-a-lifetime large windfall as though the person were a regular high earner.

    Earning say £500,000 a year every year and having the taxman take half of it to fund public spending is one thing, you can still live very comfortably on £250,000 a year. Whereas struggling to survive on say £10,000 a year, making massive crypto gains in a bull market and being able to cash out a one-off profit of £500,000, is something very different. It's a one-off windfall for the low income person, they'll likely never see money like that again.

    The website linked here has a summary, and they put it this way: "Capital gains tax will be brought into line with income tax rates, spelling big tax hikes for those who sell shares... These moves would affect small investors and may fall particularly hard on pensioners who have built up share and fund investments to support retirement."

    https://www.thisismoney.co.uk/money/news/article-7731425/What-2019-UK-election-means-money.html

    It might sound absurd to some to talk about 'massive bull runs' in the current depressed state of crypto, but bear in mind that if the next UK Parliament runs for its full term then we are talking 5 years. A lot could happen in the crypto world by the end of 2024.

    This is brilliant, physical cash notes based on an actual ERC-20 token: KONG. Seeing how it is very easy to build SLP tokens on BCH and seeing the recent developments with the BCH off-line cards, such an idea would be phenomenal on a Bitcoin Cash token or just Bitcoin Cash Satoshis. Someone make it!
