Hi Oddball, funny name! If you sell your crypto to get your funds into your bank and then buy metals it's a 'taxable event', one day in the future you could have someone knocking on your door after combing through your records automatically, asking for their cut which could be way more than 20% of the fiat you got for your crypto. Not to mention they know precisely what you bought with your fiat, owning precious metals has been illegal before and it could quite easily happen in the future. No one knows what could happen, I understand everyone is not the same but if I was in the market for silver which I will be again in the future, understanding in my view the future benefits, I would be willing to pay more than these prices to buy with crypto.

Only relevant when they bring in cbdc but youve just argued odd balls case for him in regards to cgt except coins that are cheaper

I'm pretty sure trading crypto for metals also counts as a taxable event. You are selling your asset to acquire another asset, or in other words: You are using crypto to pay for goods or services, the goods being gold. You will be liable for any relevant taxes

It depends on your circumstance, if you made a conservative 5x gains on your crypto and sell it, let's say you turned 20k into 100k, then they knock on your door, they would be asking you for 50%of the 80k. 

so you pay the 40K 

now you only have a value of 60K in Metals

Not to mention they know you have metals 

What do you think the gov would have said if you went to Nixon and said these gold coins are supposed to be capital gain free

He would say 'Hand them over, you're not supposed to have them!'

They re-write the rules whenever they want to play the game they want, surely we can all agree on that?

CBDC could be possible and it's a wet dream for them, so we need to be proactive and get out of their systems before they impose them on us.

i think he is trying to sell at around 10% above forum market value. so the buyer doesnt have to pay tax. 

I have a feeling another attempted tax dodge might go the same way as those pre-order tubes of brits

Gold is the money of kings, silver is the money of gentlemen, barter is the money of peasants, and debt is the money of slaves
