Prove it.

just hold so niggers dont get ur money

If I traded 1000 BRAP for 1000 JEET tokens with no established USD value how do I pay taxes on that?

It is
If there is no FMV you can say they are both $0. But now you have a $0 cost basis for your JEET tokens.

If I turned $1,000 into $1 million though who is going to complain about a 0 cost basis.

Simple solution is keep a separate trading and hodl stack. Sell off the stack you trade completely by dec 31st every year and just eat the short term capital gains. You can't deduct losses from the previous years gains on the same return so this can prevent you from some serous losses.
Basically anyone trading crypto that hasn't planned for this is either a retard or swinging a small stack.

Which is why you need to work out how to proceed from here on out. It isn't all too hard.

no user, it isn't.
whatever shit coin you own 0> xmr > new exchange > cash out
"i mined it all back in 2013"
crypto to crypto transactions simply do not exist.

I thought that's why they're calling them swaps? you aren't really trading it your swapping it in their pool

should i just invest in a crypto accountant? how tf am i gonna record every single crypto crypto transaction ive done

Is xmr really the way to do it? I don't want it get raped by the feds but I also have no idea how to go back in time and track my trades

itt: easy pickings for feds

I have 100 ETH that I bought for $100
Traded them all for JeetScamCash tokens
Jeet team exit scams and all liquidity dries up so I can't even sell them. All exchanges delist jeetscamcash. No possiblity of ever selling.

I'm on the hook for ETH profits and I can't write off the jeet loss because I can't sell

Swaps are still trading one asset (with a dollar cost basis) for another asset (with a dollar cost basis). This applies to houses, collectible cards, crypto and anything else. The event happens at the time of trade (or swap) for the fair market value of the asset used for the purchase. If the value of that asset has appreciated then you owe taxes on that appreciation the following year. (in dollars) The way you determine these costs is actually pretty flexible, but you do need to establish the chain of trades so you know the original cost (cost basis) and the irs knows whether you owe short or long term tax on that trade.

I mean just HOW the FUCK NEET is this board??? I unironically take a lot of advice from this place, are you all really this retarded??? Do you really think the penalty for not understanding how to pay taxes on capital gains on an entirely unregulated sector of finance would be as destructively ludicrous as you think??? I've had buddies busted for claiming family pets as children for decades and they are given the chance to pay that debt off over the course of YEARS, including fucking FUTURE TAX RETURNS! What the fuck do you retards think is going to happen? That the literal most inept portion of our government is going to anally rape a bunch of socially retarded turbo-virgins, but allow the likes of Dan Bilzerian to somehow be 'gifted' his 8th yacht from 'bilz yacht club' to avoid taxes??? How schizo is this place?

My issue is i've been trading shitcoins for years and kept no records, many with defunct exchanges so those records are gone. If I make it, is mr. taxman going to come back and claim, "oh mr. neet, thank you for this gift of 1 million in capital gains tax...but how do we know you don't owe us FIVE million!" and proceed to fuck up my life.

Because no law works that way. Trust me, I'm up to date on (((their))) tactics. But luckily, and clearly for a waning time-given current circumstances we are Americans. While there is a million ways in which that detracts from our lives, one beautiful piece of paper for you and me is unironically the constitution. (((They))) can't just claim an erroneous amount of potential gains, and if even YOU can't access the record, I'm sure Todd the boomer government employee down at IRS HQ isn't going to be able to trace that shit either.

This depends, were the eth still worth 100$ when you bought Jeet? If they were, then no, if they were 150$, then yes, you would owe taxes on 5000$ profit. You could probably get away with reporting a complete loss, especially if you burned them or something.
Like others have said, this is not so much a concern if you are talking 20k or less but if you are seriously trying to get rich on crypto, and who isn't, it is a very good idea to know how this works.

Taxation is theft

What about trading gold for silver or the other way around? Asking for a friend.

I just called up Bitcoin Inc. and requested they delete the blockchain so the IRS can't look any of this shit up. You're welcome frens.

How people still think the IRS matters whatsoever, especially to 4 billion people on this planet who aren't American. Think about it. Act like it. You pay taxes, you are dumb user.

Keep pretending the fed isn't jewish

That's what you get for doing the needful.

Guys, why aren't you using Koinly or any other crypto tracking program for tax purposes? It really doesn't cost that much.
