P2P trading and taxes?
Hi, I was wondering anyone is knowledgeable on this subject, considering I've received multiple answers regarding it. I have a few questions:
1.) Let's say I purchase 500$ worth of bitcoin (about 0.054 btc with the current btc price), and I wish to conduct a trade over the popular P2P marketplace Paxful. If my trade partner is offering 45% of that in return (around 717$ in the end after fees) to be sent to a money app such as cashapp/movo, then reinvest that full amount into more bitcoin, then would that be considered illegal? I haven't really done any bitcoin trading like this before, so I'm just curious.
2.) I'm aware that there are possibilities of received money being dirty/stolen, but is there really anything I could do about that?
3.) Lastly, I'm concerned about taxes if I were to begin trading. Can anyone go into detail about this?
This may be a handful of questions, but I would greatly appreciate it if anyone could answer to clear up some confusion. Thanks!
