Thank you, wasn’t aware of it! Will check it out. I think the BTC-BTC use case is simply just not that much on the radar atm since, without capital gains tax, it would make no sense at all ^^ taxes are really just distorting the market here a lot and which makes the otherwise irrational BTC-BTC case rational

a BTC-BTC loan as you described would appear to me to have some risk of being considered as a transaction purely for tax avoidance and may be disregarded
i’m not giving tax advice, just sharing my perspective/guess
