Services like these are an essential part of crypto for personal users!
I've been looking into the ATO taxation treatment of cryptocurrencies. I'm sure a lot of people are sitting on large capital gains at the moment on their crypto holdings after the recent rally. If you sell on an exchange, and your originally bought bitcoin as an investment, you will be liable for taxation on those gains.
Now, I know a lot of people would just say, don't declare it. However, if you want a clear conscious with regards to your state overlords, according to ATO guidance, so long as you acquired bitcoin (or STEEM or whatever other crypto) for less than $10,000 and use it to purchase goods or services for personal use, you will not be liable for income tax on the gains. See:
So, you should be able to spend your bitcoin (or STEEM in the future) on LROS and not have to worry about having the ATO on your back.
I am not a lawyer or tax accountant. Get your own professional advice before relying on this strategy.

Great post, I don't think it's as simple as not declaring the profits... Every exchange I know asks you to register your details and electronic funds transfers into your account are probably tracked by the ATO. Hard to defend in an audit

Thanks man, good to know...and No if the overlords audit me I wont come looking for you because of this advice..

I honestly think this is going to become a massive part of how we handle money here, no need using our cash when we can use what we earn here to pay our bills and keep the cash for life.
I really hope we can convince Living room of Satoshi to accept steem directly, it's just so much more convenient than having to pass our bitcoins through multiple exchanges to end up there anyway.
Bitcoin itself has become slow and this holds up how long it takes to actually get access to our funds, to send them through to living room of satoshi.
If we could transfer our steem directly in then it would be faster and even more convenient, be so nice to be able to essentially get paid from a post transfer as is to living room of satoshi and then have cash available in your bank or have paid a bill with no more hassles.
If steem is added, I see no reason why we wouldn't use this for the majority of our crypto transfers.

What a fantastic service, and based in Brissy too. I'm not yet anywhere near a point to withdraw Steem, but when I am a service like this would make the whole process so much easier.

This is awesome! I just googled and found a place in Canada that does this from Bitcoin to various bills like Hydro and to credit cards.
So I could pay credit cards with Bitcoin, and then shop with those card, and then pay them with Bitcoin.
Thanks for the idea to search this out!

Very quick and easy, just pop the bank/bill details and amount in, a popup gives you the address to send to and you get an instant notification when the funds are received. No account required, and can see their activity live https://www.livingroomofsatoshi.com/bills

A direct STEEM-AUD exchange is exactly what I need. Converting to BTC and again to AUD, is too much of a hassle. The same goes when buying STEEM.
Nice work @ausbitbank.

I'd also like to use the steem augmented service. Thank you for pursuing the idea @ausbitbank.
@roomofsatoshi when will a development decision be likely? I'm actually a Brisbane based software engineer. Perhaps I could be of some assistance in this process for the good of the community.

Non Australian here. Steemit is about community and this post that you've written is excatly the kind of green content that Steemit generates on its platform. Furthermore this type of creativity to help out individulas to crypto currency is the type of positve marketing that benefits both Living Room of Satoshi and Steemit.
I hope that Living Room of Satoshi adopts Steem and that this is the first step in a wounderful and prosperous partnership. Thanks @ausbitbank you're doing the community, your country and Steemit proud.

If you heard a high pitched squeal from an unidentified source, it was most definitely not me, because I do not squee. Ever. Really >_>
I have never heard of this service but if they make a way to convert steem to something a bank account can understand I will be there like greased lightning, possibly with a bell on if I can find another bell because I lost mine.

That is awesome! Thanks for this.My friend @snooway has been on steemit for a few months now, and she has yet to be able to convert her earnings to AUD by herself because it's too complicated/trouvlesome. I'm sure she would love this service. Btw, what are the exchange rates and fees like for their service?

I think there will be a lot of people that just don't want to deal with the complications of bitcoin, that would love this service..
The exchange rate is pretty good, and they make their fees from the currency spread. Rates are published here https://www.livingroomofsatoshi.com/api/v1/current_rates
