Am I the only one who thinks it is ironic that lauda was extorting someone over claimed tax fraud, while lauda was claiming to do this in the name of a sting operation, when lauda refused to give theymos sufficient information to generate a 1099 for his moderator income and was going around bragging about not paying taxes on this income (aka committing tax fraud himself)?
Pretty sure you don't pay tax on cryptocurrency earnings. Only once converted to fiat is the amount taxable.
