tldr; Steak ’n Shake now accepts Bitcoin for payments, but experts warn that crypto purchases, even small ones, are taxable events. The IRS treats cryptocurrencies as property, requiring taxpayers to report capital gains or losses on transactions. Methods like ‚first in, first out‘ are used for tax calculations, and software or crypto-specialized accountants can assist. Stablecoins like USDC avoid tax liability due to their fixed value, but converting Bitcoin to stablecoins is still taxable. Calls for a de minimis exemption for small transactions remain unresolved.

The IRS would have to be able to track your Bitcoin wallet and spending to keep track of that… 👀😬

Trump is a fucking moron and I fully expect that even with all his pro crypto bullshit he will fail to fix this in 4 years. I hope he proves me wrong.

I mean, if you make extra cash and make gains on any transaction, of course the gains are taxed. Gains are taxed for anything.
We don’t get that when using fiat, because fiat never gives us gains.

Taxes taxes MORE TAXES. Crypto has strayed from its original path for the worst

I encourage anyone I know to start a small business you can run from home and take a small annual gain or a loss each year and write off everything as a business expense (electricity, internet, cell, gas, rent). You have to take advantage the way the rich do these days just stay afloat.
