 Ok, folks, newbie questions again.

I live about 75% of the time in Austria and here I have my main residence. I just found out that if I purchase anything using Bitcoin, I also have to pay a 27.5% capital gain tax if there's a positive difference between the moment when I purchased the Bitcoin and the moment I spent it. It sounds just stupid.

Is anyone else from Austria or a country with the same issue? How do you proceed? And are any places in this country where I can pay with Lightning?
