Howdy there, partner! Welcome on into the Stacker Saloon.

Saddle on up to a stool and spill the beans about your day, fire away with them questions, or let loose and give us the lowdown on your wild and woolly life. We're all ears, so don't hold back!

We're open round the clock, so mosey on in whenever you please!

there mau something special hidden in the dark, after sunset bang bang...

reply

Considering using Nunchuk, which seems to tick a lot of boxes for me. Particularly inheritance planning and timelocks. Does anyone here have any experience using it and have any feedback on if its a good idea?

reply

I can vouch for the wallet itself. Nice interface.

reply

getting more and more into @nemo's style - delete everything and live in the present with no history:)

why keeping everything from the past right?

reply

You and nemo broke SN search. I cannot find anything related to my searches on SN. Search engine of SN is useless. So I start keeping bookmarks and/or save the posts in a giant folder with many posts, that are interesting for me.

reply

more like keeping the best stuff only, less is more 🫔

sometimes I go to your bookmarks - let me see what gems darth found!

reply

hahaha my bookmarks (not the ones from SN, the real ones, in my browser...) https://postimg.cc/ZWy428B6

Good Mornin Partners! Time to saddle up for a full Fiat work week for me, but not to fear, I’ll be studying up on Bitcoin here.

With Bitcoin I know I’m on the right path, And won’t end up in a mud bath.

We have a powerful and smart crew, And I know there is nothing we can’t do!

So keep self custody and stack away, As we know there is no other way!

reply

Good afternoon coach. Work day on my end is almost coming to an end. Things are still going strong this side. Stacking like crazy in hopes that I achieve my target for the end of this year. Enjoy the rest of your fiat mining day.

reply

Speaking to my Uruguayan accountant today. Anyone got any questions they’d like me to ask?

reply

Just been told that no one really knows how to treat BTC the asset in šŸ‡ŗšŸ‡¾.

Regulation was proposed but never passed. Capital gains not really currently applied or collected (12% for other financial assets). I had previously assumed it was so.

Businesses or merchants can report or not report transactions performed with BTC, definitely gray area & no laws expecting or compelling you to do so.

I was given the anecdote of a client who was degenerative trading. His balances kept increasing and so the bank asked some questions. He told them what he was up to, and the bank waved him on his way and said nothing more, allowing him to continue profiting. No tax man knocking at his door. No expectations. Sound like somewhere you want to live? šŸ˜„ Can’t imagine it completely continues, but for now.. just goes to show the geoarbitrage opportunity here.

Well then... šŸ‡ŗšŸ‡¾ is another country to add in "Place to live", šŸ‡øšŸ‡», šŸ‡¦šŸ‡· ... I see a "theme" with this flags... blue, white, sun u other symbol...

reply

Huh. That seems... remarkable.

Makes me think of Puerto Rico, in the States (sort of.) They have an extremely generous tax policy once you establish residency. Surely they'll change that, eventually, but I also wonder if they'll make it retroactive and try to claw back tax revenue on previous capital gains.

reply

True, but even if they do worst case is 12%.

Already drastically lower than the 20% in U.K, where I can only see it going higher because ā€œclimate changeā€

Scenario:

I am a merchant that accept payment in BTC

How I declare those income? It's like other state when you need to add those btc as a "buy" stock, and then "sell" and paid double tax?

My 2cents

reply

It's incredibly how we went for accountant working for people that have a lot to account for, to accountant as a compliance mechanism to fear the state.

Old

  • I want to account the amount of corn I have, I am a lazy person, could you do it for me?

New

  • You need an external auditor to inform the state what you have and pay a tax.

If I forget about that, just ask how to legally avoid paying tax using bitcoin, I am pretty sure you will need a lawyer too.

reply

You’re right. The meeting is mostly for business stuff, but still will talk personal finances.

Sadly, governments over-regulate and create countless rules and regulations that make the simple math or keeping up with the various schemes nigh on impossible for someone not focused on it full-time.

In the absence of that, we would require a fraction of the amount of legal & financial professionals. Innovation would boom and velocity of money would speed up.

reply

It's insane how "you" are responsible of inform about "your" movements to an external entity (state) and if you forget something it is going after you.

Could be much more easy to said to this external entity, "What do you know?" and then "Ok, I agree with that, here are my taxes", I can't believe how 100% of the responsibility of tax declaration is in our side.

reply

Does he have enough sats stacked? But then again, how much is enough.

I don't care much for Nostr. SN, now that's a different story. Nothing beats zapping cowboys.

I agree. I see Nostr as a social network and SN as a forum. The zaps on Nostr are more random, not on SN.

My procrastination has to stop. Only a few days left in November, and I'm avoiding all the year end paperwork I need to wade through. December is not all Peace And Joy for me.

You will get through all the paperwork. You just have to block out the distraction for the time being. Those distraction will still be there when the paperwork is done and dusted.

I've played a few arcade games in my life but not this one.

Sunset Riders was very popular here in Portugal. I spent a fortune on this game! There were lines to play at the cafe.

I spent a fortune on this game!

Lol. I know how expensive it got to play these arcade games.

reply

I played a lot in the early 1990s, and 50 escudos (0.25 euros without inflation) was worth 1 credit, if my memory serves me correctly. 100 escudos (0.5 euros) was worth 3 credits. 50 escudos at that time could buy 2 pastries. Now, each pastry costs more than 1 euro.

reply

Man you have a good memory. I can't even remember what I had for breakfast this morning. Lol.

AI isn't the only thing. Google had search and Apple makes hardware. I'd say Google has a greater potential to lose its place than Apple. Really seems like Microsoft is going for AI hard. So far what OpenAI has built is the next evolution in answering questions that search used to own. Not without some big tradeoffs but if I were running Google I'd be concerned.
