    If you have gains in bitcoin, report and pay taxes when you sell (or spend same as selling). It's only 15% based on your profits (minus cost-basis) if it's held over a year.

    Don't mess with the IRS.

    For the people doing that, their APR is probably around 21%.

    [Not a tax advice, please seek a professional]. Keep it simple. You have record you bought bitcoin from Coinbase at $xxx and you sold (or spent) bitcoin at $xxxx/btc. Each purchase using btc is recorded with the amount (and in some cases the conversion rate is printed on the invoice).

    Credit to a YouTuber who got it from another source, but still seek proper professional advice.

    I would say probably even higher...I know people with perfect credit scores with credit card apr at 12.99%%% credit card companies could give two fu$ks about your perfect credit score ...you cant find anything lower than probably 8.99%

    Yeah, figured it'd be like that, gonna push my luck with a bunch of like-kind exchanges, crypto being an asset and all.

    Anyone with experience reporting crypto trades?

    So using the historical data many times it has been an excellent time to buy BTC on credit cards given its much higher returns compared to the financing cost ;)
    You seem a bit sour when you had chance to buy at 300 but didn' bother.
