I suspect gifting my crypto to my spouse is possible for tax purposes. The gift being a taxable event but from then on, the taxable events would go against the spouses income. Anyone know anything about this?
I'd rather not hear from those who advocate for tax avoidance. I prefer to operate above board even if I believe taxation with ineffective representation is deeply unethical.
I've been wondering what people who are bitcoin supporters think about the normal stock market. I have been recently (last 3-5 years) becoming more and more a hardcore bitcoin kind of guy because of my lost of faith in fiat and everything around it. I understand the companies have "real value" in that they produce some kind of service or product but with companies "buying back their stocks" and the money printer going brrrrr and artificially supporting the stock market i get an uneasy feeling about it all. I am not here to cast away the whole stock market as a balloon but i am having a hard time justifying any investments in it. Do you invest in the stock market? What are you ratios like? 50%50%? 20%80%?80%20%?
And also why do i get this feeling that the stock market is heavily manipulated and want to stay away from it. Am i wrong with this feeling ?
Can someone please provide another perspective on Bitcoin as a reserve asset for https://www.reddit.com/r/vancouver/comments/1h2vhu6/could_vancouvers_public_funds_be_used_for/?utm_source=share&utm_medium=web3x&utm_name=web3xcss&utm_term=1&utm_content=share_button
The comments are very one sided...nobody has done the work nor the open mind. But for those who are more open minded, I am sure they are open to evidence.
It’s time to be a man Canada and build up a Bitcoin reserve for our future!
Jw which has the lowest fees and spread, and why you choose the platform that you did!
Hi,
I have invested in stocks before and I have done some trading with crypto. But, I want to pay more attention to cryto. I am a bit consfused with the taxes. Do you know how many trades I can make in a month since crypto is violate, I wanted to profit off the pumps and dumps, along the charts. I was wondering would I be classified as capital gains tax or business tax.
Hi guys,
I’m looking to finally buy a bitcoin wallet but don’t know much about it yet. Ideally something that can also hold other coins but I guess that’s not a thing? But BTC is def most important for me anyway. I was hoping someone could recommend a good one that ideally has a Black Friday Deal going on?
I’m going to say BTC will keep climbing. It will be within the next years. If it climbs up, make sure you vote me as your Prime Minister.
If it crashed like 2023 ($16k), don’t blame me. I said it will go up within next years.
Just like the other right wing post indicating
Pierre Pollievier is right and will make us rich And Justin Trudeau will make us POOR! He doesn’t want us to invest in BTC! He just want us to be POOR!
The conservatives leader Pierre Pollievre told ppl to invest in BTC around 2021. BTC crashes in 2022 and he stopped telling people to invest in BTC.
Hello, I have solar panels at home that produce a big surplus in summer, I would have liked to put miners at home to use the lost electricity, I did some research but I have the impression that it exists.
I had the idea of a custom os for existing miners who deactivated their chip on request, the system looks in real time if we are in overproduction and if this is the case, it activates the chips accordingly, it is not as precise as a water heater resistance but it is already not bad.
Do you have solutions?
I have seen some wildly optimistic projections about bitcoin. And so much FUD. What year do you think 1 sat = 1 CAD?
After moving crypto from a wallet to an exchange and sell it, do you...

What's the best place to buy Bitcoin in Canada regularly (e.g., weekly or monthly)? My goal is simple: buy, hold, and minimize fees and risks. I’ve been researching, but I’d love to hear your thoughts and suggestions.
Is it just personal preference? I know to deposit kraken charges 0.5% fee while Ndax is a flat fee of $1.50. Is there any other major differences?
Been using Coinbase for some time now and can’t complain. How does it compare to other CEX in your experience ? Please no bots only real helpful humans 😁
Currently I send from Kraken to the cold wallet. Are there any other suggestions?
Back in 2021 when the Canadian Bitcoin ETFs launched and GBTC started in the USA, there was a website that showed the current ETF market value vs the valuation of the underlying BTC held in each BTC.
I would love to see this again, for both Bitcoin and ETH ETFs, ideally including both Canadian and USA ETFs. I'm sure it exists. I can't believe I didn't bookmark it!
Does anyone remember this website or have a similar source? Thank you!
Looking to swap ETH for BTC without having to sell ETH for cash and then buying BTC. Is there a decentralized way to do this efficiently? Thanks!
I currently own a small amount of actual bitcoin that I bought on shake pay (about 0.05 btc at avg entry of 15k USD), the rest of my actual crypto are in mainly large and medium cap alt coins, which I plan to rotate into bitcoin this market cycle.
Luckily right now I am in a position where I have a good amount of extra income that I can use to invest. With that I've have been buying VEQT/VFV shares as well as FBTC shares. This has all been within my TFSA, where I still have about 16k worth of room and then 7k more on Jan 1st, 2025.
Is it better to keep buying in my TFSA, or should I directly be buying bitcoin? What about once I run out of TFSA room? Then RRSP? or again just straight bitcoin?
THANKS!
