    Call or email your local congressmen and senators in regards to sloppily written bitcoin tax laws

    Posted: 01 Aug 2021 03:20 PM PDT

    For those of you wondering what steps can be taken in regards to this travesty of a poorly worded bitcoin tax law, flooding the phones and e-mails of your local congressmen and senators does make an impact. This is the time to act while it can still be redrafted or amended.

    Update-sold my condo for bitcoin

    Posted: 01 Aug 2021 10:34 PM PDT

    Not close to investment advice-but hope my experience can help someone make the best decision for them.

    As I stated, I sold my condo and rolled the money into bitcoin. My long term plan is to hold 20-50% forever. Here's what I've learned in 5 points.

    1-Most people, especially those in the developed world, have zero clue what bitcoin is. This is true among higher income earners. My average friend and colleague makes between $150-$250k as a single income earner with no kids (think high disposable income). Maybe 5% have any serious allocation relative to net worth in bitcoin. 2 out of 60 people I know actually understand to a decent degree what bitcoin is.

    1. We are getting close to the older folks participating in bitcoin. It will be very, very small, but they are starting to join. This is especially true for very wealthy people-they don't talk about it, but I know several that own a few hundred grand worth of bitcoin.

    2. The people I refuse to listen to our those with income wealth, not investment wealth. Be wary of your suburban dad with the leased e class amg who works as a sales manager pulling in $200k a year. These people know how to play the office game and are income rich. They have zero clue what is going on. They THINK they do.

    3. I think maximalists will be disappointed in how this roles out. Digital wallets will be common place in the next 3-5 years. Many who own bitcoin will have very little clue how it works.

    4. The same people who were calling housing market tops in 2017 just bought homes. Not making fun of them, observing -I still think housing goes higher. These same people have little to no bitcoin, or sold it and think it's going to 10k. It's just like housing-people say things that they want to happen.

    Owning 1 BTC of digital real estate is equivalent to owning 1126 acres of the Earth's habitable land

    Posted: 01 Aug 2021 12:35 PM PDT

    How I got there:

    15.77 billion acres of habitable land

    14 million coins of active supply (not lost or Satoshi's coins)

    One 14 millionth of the 15.77 billion habitable acres is 1126 acres.

    Owning 0.01 of a coin (1 million sats) is equivalent to 11 acres.

    This is your equivalent share of Bitcoin's total value in the form of digital real estate, with our Earth's physical land as the model.

    If you believe in owning a piece of the bitcoin world's digital acreage, the soundest, freest money ever known to earth, it doesn't take much to buy a few acres. You can buy one acre for about $37 right now.

    Coinbase only insures online wallets which is only 2% of all the coins it has. Coinbase stores the majority of its coins in offline cold-storage wallets which are not insured. If you have coins at Coinbase, there is a 98% chance thay are not insurred.

    Crypto Taxes. How we get it WRONG.

    Posted: 01 Aug 2021 07:56 PM PDT

    Or government is applying more taxes to crypto and moving to eliminate our privacy. Hey what's in your wallet? How do we compare with other countries.

    Germany- crypto is considered private money. Also, no VAT tax. No taxes to be paid on profits for long term holder of amounts under 600 Euro.

    Switzerland- Mining is considered self-employment and is subject to business income tax.

    Bermuda- No taxes on buying, selling, or trading cryptocurrencies.

    Portugal- trading tax free.

    People can find many more places that are tax friendly to crypto. So, why is government so hell bent on taxing crypto. Because they don't like the way it disrupts the system. If you can't control it, kill it. I think our country is suffering from wanting to know too much about everyone.

    1/ Happy UASF anniversary fellow Bitcoiners! An occasion to remind us that miners aren’t paid to decide the rules of the network, rather they are incentivized to follow the rules and follow the market.

    After 6+yrs Smartbit.com.au block explorer nd API is closing down tonight. Thank you. �� �� #bitcoin

    Posted: 01 Aug 2021 05:45 PM PDT

    Hi All,

    As per post last month https://www.reddit.com/r/Bitcoin/comments/o3w4q3/smartbitcomau_block_explorer_is_closing_down/ Smartbit is closing down. We'll be turning off the block explorer API and server tonight and update the landing page with a offline notification and contact details.

    Unfortunately we didn't find a suitable custodian or buyer to continue smartbit.com.au. We self funded smartbit and loved being part of the community and the early reddit bitcoin days.

    Potentially our last post didn't get enough upvotes for exposure. If anyone/company is interested and committed to taking it over please email [jarred@smartbit.com.au](mailto:jarred@smartbit.com.au) or upvote 👆 if keen for Smartbit to continue and for others to see the post.

    Some milestones we're proud of:

    • 5million+ page views
    • 1million+ daily API requests
    • low 7% bounce rate (meaning people enjoyed using the site), with an average duration of all users over 4minutes.
    • Many 100's of free how to support emails for new Bitcoin users looking for their bitcoin 😀Patience, the block confirmation will come.
    • Most of all proud of providing a service to help grow Bitcoin early when there weren't as many positive actors or accurate data providers (looking at you other blockexplorers 😎).

    Feel free to also share our last tweet on this. https://twitter.com/smartbithq/status/1406439048709742592 the message didn't recieve a lot of impressions, so a retweet/share would be appreciated.

    The "more" information link which was shared last time is here: https://docs.google.com/forms/d/e/1FAIpQLSeJXItR6jZEZWLkmzeXZMmfitdE7AiEuA3N1dbssZPxeIsIPA/viewform?usp=sf_link

    Thanks again. We'll continue to follow closely and find other ways support Bitcoin's bright future.
