A total horseshit about 15% long term cap gains in US.
The upper limit (currently) is 23.8% for Federal alone. Add more if your state taxes it as well, like Cali & NY. My state does not, which is a plus.
That 23.8% federal is about to move to 43.4%, I don't doubt it.

Is it funny, or ironic, that a scary tax matter is the ONLY thing that you are responding to, and you just conveniently ignore the points about clarifying the difference between the whiney curmudgeon strategy as compared with the ongoing active investor strategy who ended up with more than 2x as many bitcoin as the curmudgeon (42 BTC for the ongoing active investor versus 20 BTC for the whiney curmudgeon). 

You don't consider that having twice as many BTC makes any kind of meaningful difference, and instead you want to focus on taxes because you had handicapped ur own lil selfie through too much scaredy-cattedness in the way that you failed/refused to reasonably invest in BTC in the long term.

You were a scaredy cat in 2014/2015 who failed refused to take a reasonably aggressive BTC strategy by praying for a mere hail Mary effect - and you continue to fail/refuse to take a reasonably aggressive BTC strategy through the subsequent 6 years and just wait and hope that BTC saves your stingy little ass when you could have engaged in a strategy in which you could have helped to save ur lil selfie from your stingy self.
