- throwawayadvsec 4y agowe're not arguing about regulations or ethics, he was just saying that it was just gambling, more regulations wouldn't change that
- Cardinal7167 4y agoBut crypto _is_ regulated. The SEC has been clear about how to treat and tax crypto.
- JumpCrisscross 4y ago> SEC has been clear about how to treat and tax crypto The SEC has no authority over how crypto is taxed.
- Cardinal7167 4y agoTheir guidance to treat it like a security has clear tax implications, im obviously not saying they control the tax legislation itself.
- JumpCrisscross 4y ago> guidance to treat it like a security has clear tax implications Not really. These are independent decisions. The IRS may incorporate the SEC's views into its guidance, but that's simply a courtesy.
