It is always amazing how the tax agency of the country can be more advanced in their guidelines on reporting income and how to pay them but in regard to other sides of cryptocurrency the development is too slow and many times stalled for different reasons. Sometimes I found it funny but many times sad. But this is a big reality we have to face.
At any rate, getting clarifications and providing more animations in gray areas can be much better than groping in the dark. Taxation is such a powerful tool by the government and failure to obey the laws can be a big hassle later.
The reason why we have the government regulatory agencies every step ahead when it comes to tax payment is because the think-thank they have. The people who formulated this policies are the combinations of various smart guys in virtually all the industries I mean the best of the best from top schools talk about the business schools, the intelligence community, the hackers, the developers and not limited to those that even operate in the dark world. Put all these people together to formulate a policy will probably cover any cheap loopholes you can immediately look for while the other loopholes are left for taxpayers to point out for them to block after series of legal battles to their own advantage and because there is always an element of fear and punishments in these regulations, they hardly get contested by the tax payers.
