只是底特律一个新闻社的态度,不等于底特律承认其货币地位

2014-21三月底,美国国税局发出通知,以税收为目的,比特币和其他类似的“虚拟货币”归类为财产。周三,底特律新闻社论极力反对这一立场,建议把比特币归类为外币:国税局把比特币交易视为财产交易,这意味着交易获得的每一分钱在技术上都应报告为收入。但是,由于比特币的价值每一秒都在变动,符合美国国税局陈旧的规则几乎是不可能的。国税局应重新把比特币归类为外币,这样,获取货币到花出货币之间的价值变化是一个不上税的事件。德国已经考虑比特币的“单位账户”,鼓励货币生产的竞争。这篇社论除了明显的论点,还有两点需要注意。首先,主编指出德国有更好的方式处理加密货币。总是很高兴看到一个主流出版物的观点不是默认的美国例外论。二,社论实际上是说,比特币是稳定的:在许多方面,比特币和传统的美国货币一样的稳定。因为它由软件代码运行,就没有机会如美元一样,在最近的历史中一贯贬值。比特币是以数学为基础的软件,按固定速率缓慢发行新币。一旦达到最大发行量,就会停止发行。这是一个有用的数据点,是公众知觉的晴雨表。如果主流报纸正在推崇用加密货币的稳定性对抗法币贬值,这也是值得注意的。完整的社论可以在这里找到。我们欢迎关于底特律新闻的任何观点和想法。
评论:外币不就是合法的外币吗?按一定汇率兑换法币,全球通用。
In late March, the US Internal Revenue Service issued Notice 21-2014, which classified Bitcoin and other such “virtual currencies” as property for tax purposes. On Wednesday, the editorial board at The Detroit News argued against this stance, suggesting instead that Bitcoin be classified as a foreign currency: The IRS treats Bitcoin transactions as property, which means every penny gained in a transaction technically should be reported as income. But since the value of bitcoins changes every second, compliance with antiquated IRS rules is virtually impossible. The IRS should reclassify bitcoin as a foreign currency, so that the change in value between when a currency is acquired and when it’s spent is a non-taxable event. Germany already considers Bitcoin a “unit of account” and encourages competition in money production. Two things to note in this editorial besides the obvious. First, the editorial board points to Germany as having a better way of dealing with cryptocurrencies. It’s always nice to see a mainstream publication not default to arguments based on American exceptionalism. Second, the editorial actually makes the argument that Bitcoins are stable: In many ways, bitcoins offer just as much stability as traditional U.S. currency. Because it’s run by software code, there is no chance Bitcoin can be debased like the dollar has consistently in recent history. Bitcoin’s mathematically-based software slowly releases new amounts of money at a fixed rate. Once maximum circulation is reached, it will stop. This is a useful data point on the barometer of public perception. If a mainstream newspaper is promoting a cryptocurrency’s stability against the debasement of a fiat currency, that’s noteworthy. The full editorial can be found here. We welcome any and all thoughts on The Detroit News’ position.
