Has anyone seen anything in the way of a resource to help those coinbase users impacted by the IRS lawsuit?
The way this first bunch of bitcoiners is treated by the IRS will set a huge precedent for everyone else down the road.
Especially those of us who have net losses but a hard time documenting all the other craziness, hacks, scams, and so on that occurred during those years.
Seems like it would be in the interest of the community as a whole to have some solid legal expertise available to prevent
a possible fishing expedition by the IRS from wrecking lives, requiring costly and time-consuming analysis efforts.
bitcoin users do many things with the currency that don't fit the model currently stipulated by the IRS for taxation - seems like lots of new legal territory here.
Perhaps Coinbase themselves could step forward and create some kind of tax help resource for those customers they promised to protect?
