 I actually pay a 30% flat tax in France everytime I sell a bitcoin. Law enforcement is enough to make me pay. And also I consider this is not so high for such an easy money.

I remember when I was living in the US, IRS was actually even higher (35% if I remember correctly: I had a high salary).

 Easy money 🙄 ... you should focus more on studying bitcoin instead of trading.

 I don't trade. I bought some at the good moment. And regarding studying bitcoin, thank you for your advice: I'm in since 2015 and was the main dev of a digital signature and timestamping platform built over bitcoin. I even identify myself as a bitcoin maximalist. I just don't buy the libertarian part of it.
