Hi Everybody,

When getting Satoshi/Bitcoins from the internet in general, could you please tell me whether you have to pay tax to the country you get them from or do you just pay taxes to your own country?

Thanks for your help.




In USA, Depending on what your doing with bitcoin, if your mining bitcoin you have to pay income tax on every cent you make. Also if the price of bitcoin goes up even 1 cent you also have to pay a tax on that called, Capital Gains tax. In your trading bitcoin, you may require registering for a "FinCEN" as it may be classified as money transmitting. As far as I know, these taxes must be payed based of the place you live no matter where you buy the bitcoin.
