Thanks for the great story! Keep your BTC up to the next ATH!

Thank you 

I would also like to know how many people have been able to change their lives thanks to BTC, for example access to private property or healthcare, it would be interesting to have access to a sociological study of the "winners and losers" of Bitcoin, that could be very interesting from my point of view.

To be honest, I was lucky enough to be able to exchange large amounts of BTC for XMR, before being able to sell this XMR for FIAT (FIAT which was used to pay for the house). In theory, since everything was P2P, the government never had a view on my main wallet.
I don't dodge my taxes tbh, I'm in a country where they are relatively low (for example less than 100 usd per year in property taxes, 10% flat tax on all incomes, 10 % on cryptos profits when >3k / year etc.). On the other hand, if I had stayed in my native country, I would probably have tried to avoid them (there it's in the 33% minimum on crypto profits and on incomes...)

Congratulations on buying your new home! I wonder how many people have bought their homes because they profited with Bitcoin.

Dodging tax? How did you buy your home when they check where the funds came from?  

Well I understand your point but I won't be against paying my taxes with BTC. I would, of course, not share my main wallet which I use to hold my BTC with them.

I have a wallet which is the least active as possible, and I wouldn't appreciate the idea of the government knowing his existence

I'd rather pay taxes in silver, as that was the money used in the betrayal of the Savior Jesus Christ. Government can get right out of my health and wealth. Paying in btc could be pushed into the political payments as an improvement in some ways although since the systems of governance i know of isn't compatible with the economics of bitcoin, time will tell how that works as it happens.

thank you!

Not directly unfortunately, but I can pay them in cash, and I will probably withdraw some cash with a BTC ATM

I would love to pay my taxes with BTC.

I'm happy for you! Can you pay property taxes directly in btc?

I was finally able to buy my house thanks to Bitcoin guys!!!

I had sold some of my BTC back in November 2021, and since that moment I was waiting to find the right opportunity, the right house. Now it's done, I've found it and I am more than happy to know that I own this security.

I had no other FIAT savings, no stock in the stock market, everything of value I own I was able to acquire only through BTC. I know it's not reasonable, nor necessarily intelligent, but heh, when you are born broke and have no diploma, no inheritance, BTC is still one of the few real hopes to improve one's social condition and living conditions. At least from my point of view..
I'm just under 30, and after 5 years of doing ALL IN in BTC I don't regret it.

I started out with just a backpack, a few hundred dollars and an old Thinkpad. I spent hours, dozens of hours reading about BTC and economy, lurking here, without even having an account for most of the time. Back in the time, I had sold some of my BTC after a pump to get a place to live (I mean to be able to rent an stable apartment and stopping to sleep in a fucking Citroen C3, or shitty Airbnbs), to get a degree and especially to buy some Antminers. I've solo mined BCH (yes I know, don't judge me, the difficulty was much lower than BTC and my hashrate was low...) and I had a lot of luck: a lot of blocks.
All these blocks rewards, I instant swapped them for BTC, and I held until the end of 2021, where I secured part of the profits by reselling. I continue to hold the rest of these BTC but those will be used to pay for my future retirement.

All of you here, regular and quality contributors, you and Bitcoin have allowed me to have a degree, a job I love, two years of wonderful travels, and finally the security of a home.

I sincerely want to thank you all, I guess for most of you it doesn't mean much, but some of you helped me change my life, and even all the Merits in the world wouldn't be enough to show my gratitude.
I will spend my time as much as possible to give back to the community, to the begginers starting their Bitcoin journey. I am not the most knowledgeable but I will try to learn more each day, and to share what I know when I could help.
