Yeah, I'm kind of confused on this too. I mined a few years ago, played around with the coins a bit (lost a few), and have left them in a wallet since. So, technically I pay the taxes on them in 2011 as income tax (when I 'mined' them), at the price I mined them at, and then I will pay the difference between that price, and the price I sold them at as capital gains? Can anyone else in a similar situation chime in here?
