Mark Cuban Caught in Bankruptcy of Crypto Lender Voyager https://www.thestreet.com/investing...ReQTg7p5koCxIO9YimbejHWkZR5AxtkYItpckMgDCDVYQ
Cuban got lucky once, he is neither a good investor nor trader nor anything related to finance. He is a great salesman (generally selling bullshit and dreams to gullible people) and an entrepreneur. Should have just collected the money and enjoyed life. Instead he got on TV and opens his dumb mouth every so often, makes himself ridiculous in shark tank a series for desperate hopefuls, and engaged in plunder after plunder. He had one lucky hand, should have left the casino right after.
cuban was always a putz. but a least he didnt call a stock move from 40 to 80 in minutes, an after the fact call. pot calls kettle black

Germany has no tax on Bitcoin commodities as long as you've held onto them for a minimum of one year. Guess where crypto is stockpiling today?
Or maybe it was just used by a lot of US citizens (it was). The US government won't let you use Binance, KYC or not. They're scared you might like freedom a bit too much.
