as you guys know, i sold everything at a 50% loss in late january right before the SEC hearings. i still firmly believe crypto is done here.

now i found out that ALL crypto-to-crypto trades are taxable events, and i was up 200% of my investment on dec. 31 2017.

that means, for this tax season, i need to pay income tax on 200% using just 50% of my investment.

"my investment" was basically all my savings, every dollar and penny i had. this basically wipes me out.

still trying to understand if there's some loophole i can use to get out of this, or i'm totally done.

even if you're all in, so long as you made trades in late december, you owe taxes on your gains up to that point. and the subsequent losses in early 2018 don't save you from that. that's what's killing me here.

supposing i don't get into crypto again (i don't believe in it, and besides i have no more money), then the losses i suffered in 2018 aren't going to be used to offset anything? will i be able to get anything back from the government after getting royally screwed this way?

I don't understand. You bought crypto, it appreciated, you sold it, made $1M, then bought more crypto?

I thought capital gains taxes only apply to realized gains, so if you didn't sell it you didn't actually make any money.

Lol just realized this is elaborate flame

A gain is not realized until the security that has appreciated is sold. For example, say you buy some stock in a company and your investment grows steadily at 15% for one year. At the end of the year, you decide to sell your shares. Although your investment has increased since the day you bought the shares, you will not realize any gains until you have sold them. As a general rule, you don't pay any tax until you've realized a gain. After all, you need to receive the cash made from selling at least part of your investment in order to pay any tax.

yes i sold them, repeatedly, to buy other crypto. no i did not cash out. but crypto-to-crypto trade is considered "selling" and any gains you made at the time of transfer is considered a taxable event.

Well then you need to file, get on an installment plan to pay your capital gains taxes, then carry your capital losses forward at $3k per year for the rest of your life.

Or don't

so you sold in dec 31 and made $1mm in crypto and then bought $1mm in crypto and lost 50% so ur at $500k and now you need to pay 50% in taxes for some reason, so everything is gone.
