Bitcoin was created to liberate us from corrupt governments and corporations that serve their own needs. The coinbase transaction in the genesis block, mined by Satoshi Nakamoto contained: "The Times 03/Jan/2009 Chancellor on brink of second bailout for bank". What is your opinion on paying taxes on Bitcoin? The government most likely doesn't know my bitcoin address. Even if they do find it, based on the transactions made from my bank account to exchanges, I could simply say someone stole the private key from me. Many of the posts here asking for help on filing taxes on their Bitcoin make no sense to me. We have a system that allows complete financial freedom and yet people choose to pay their taxes from it and support crooked governments.
We want that Bitcoin is a help to every nations economy so to do this we should pay the Bitcoin taxes as per regulation policy as this is our counterpart to the government of supporting it and making it legal. Now if some of the government officials are corrupt then that is another story because if we earned either thru Bitcoin or thru direct fiat earnings it will not change the fact that we as citizens of every nation should pay income tax in accordance of our laws. The good thing is not all government is corrupt but there are lot of government that they are in true service to their people like Japan, USA and Germany.
