Follow on Google News | Tax Resolution Attorney John P Willis Reveals That The IRS Has Taken The Fun Out Of CryptocurrenciesBy: IRSAllstar Fairhope, AL, July 30, 2018: Tax Attorney John Willis, CEO and founder of IRSALLSTAR.com, recently posted a new article on his website entitled "It's Not Monopoly Money Anymore," in which Mr. Willis points out that what once seemed like a game is now serious business to the IRS. Willis confesses, "I couldn't resist using the quote I read in a NY Times piece about the confusion over taxes and cryptocurrencies." "As the Times piece points out (https://www.nytimes.com/ According to Willis, "For early investors it must have felt like playing with Monopoly money on steroids!" He emphasizes, "Those days are over now that the IRS has taken a keen interest after last year's cryptocurrency boom which saw the price of Bitcoin rise more than 1,500%. It didn't help at all that most of the gains came during the last two months of the year. " "In its early days cryptocurrencies were traded as currency for currency which is not a taxable event," Willis explains. He continues adding, "However, now the IRS is treating cryptocurrency as property. As the NY Times article emphasizes, "That means that every time you sell or transfer a digital coin for something else — whether you're cashing out Ether for dollars, trading Bitcoin for another cryptocurrency or using Ripple to buy a cup of coffee — you're creating a taxable event that must be separately recorded and accounted for."
