PRO and CON: In the U.S.A cryptocurrency is legal, regulated, and when held for investment taxed as an investment property. That's really good. It means it gives you freedom to keep a tally of your trades, treat them as capital gains, and then report to the IRS just as with any capital investment. On the other hand, the rules are difficult to understand and this complicates things. Assuming they do apply, that means every trade from one cryptocurrency to another is a taxable event for the year. Meanwhile, if they don’t apply, then you don’t pay taxes on cryptocurrency until you take it out of cryptocurrency and convert it to USD. This is far from the only tax consideration. These one should study and consider the tax implications of cryptocurrency before making investments in the cryptocurrency space. That means you may need to hire an accountant and that cost must be considered.
