I have a very specific question about capital gains taxes and potential gifting tax. I was hoping I could get an answer here. I want to give the background of everything before I ask the question. In November and December of 2020 and January 2021, I bought (A VERY BIG AMOUNT) XRP on the only crypto exchange offered in New York, Coinbase. As a result of the lawsuit, the exchange, Coinbase, halted all trading on it. However, I was still able to hold all of my XRP on the exchange to withdraw it. Since I was living in NY at the time, I only had access to the only exchange available to NY residents, Coinbase. I needed to move it to a place where I could sell it. One of my family members in another state was able to sign up for Uphold, so I sent all my XRP to that family member. The concern I have is that I dont know whether if my family member will be liable for the taxation. I bought it all with my own money on Coinbase and sent it to Uphold exchange account that is under the family member's name. When I bought the XRP, Coinbase had the record of me buying it tied in with my SSN and ID. When I sent the XRP to my family member, the only thing submitted was the ID, but not the SSN. I have done NO trades (buying or selling) onto his account. I only withdrawn my XRP from Coinbase to Deposit into Uphold. So my question is this: If I sell my XRP under my family member's exchange account... who’s liable for the taxation? If my family is liable for the taxes, I want to withdraw my XRP out of that account. It's a heft amount. I was also concerned that it might be considered a gift. If I retrieve it back to my wallet with no trades on it... will it still be liable for the gift tax? Essentially I'm just returning my asset back to me. Thanks everybody. Enjoy the moon ride

How do you convert you XRP to USD? There are many exchange sites but I can't find websites that convert XRP straight to USD. You'll first have to convert your XRP to BTC and in that case you'll have to pay double taxes (at least in the US)! Who knows exchange sites that convert your XRP straight to USD? Am I the only one who is afraid that you cannot trade your XRP back into dollars/euros/etc?

Hi Guys, Seems like Coinbase is not making a lot of right decisions lately, I think its arrogance and overconfidence that is stopping them from taking right decisions. Found this interesting article, which states they couldnt find enough customers for their overhyped index funds, and are ditching the idea. Competition is already making things tough for them and i really hope the other exchanges take them over big time, because they really didnt make the xrp hodlers lives easy with their attitude. "Coinbase Ditches Its Index Fund in Favor of a New Retail Feature" Coinbase – one of the largest digital currency exchanges in the U.S. – is nixing its index fund designed for accredited investors and shifting its focus to a new retail product, The Block reports https://theblockcrypto.com/2018/10/11/coinbase-is-shutting-down-its-fund-aimed-at-big-investors-as-it-pivots-to-a-new-retail-product/ . Coinbase first announced its fund back in March of 2018. The project was designed to give institutional investors easy access to the digital currency market by offering them an index that represents a basket of Coinbase’s listed assets. During this time, Coinbase representatives stated that they were “seeing strong demand from institutional and high net worth individuals.” However, now the index fund has failed to attract an appropriate number of clients. Coinbase was reportedly unable to garner necessary revenue from the project and has since decided to move on to other endeavors. The latest retail product entitled the Coinbase Bundle, launched at the end of September. Using the feature, investors can purchase an assortment of the coins offered on Coinbase with one click. Minimum purchases begin at $25. Differing from an index fund, Coinbase Bundle does not offer fixed methodologies, nor does it provide rebalancing options. This is not the first feature of its kind. Circle introduced its clients to a similar product entitled Circle Invest, which allows users to buy up to 11 different tokens in a single investment. Circle also sports a lower purchasing minimum of merely $10. While the product has garnered solid reviews on Apple’s App Store, it remains unpopular amongst everyday users, and currently holds the #734 spot amongst finance apps according to App Annie. Founded in 2012, Coinbase is a broad company that covers trading,institutional brokerage and venture capital. It has amassed more than 20 million users, though active user activity has fallen by roughly 80 percent this year." "The company has worked hard to expand its team and has brought several renowned figures from the financial and tech industries on board, including former Instinet CEO Jonathan Kellner. Kellner will lead institutional sales and support for Coinbase beginning in 2019. He will work with the exchange to build an over-the-counter trading business, allowing Coinbase to better compete with exchanges such as itBit, Gemini and Kraken. Furthermore, the company is looking to hire 100 additional employees for its New York office, where they’ll join a campaign to bring more Wall Street vendors to the crypto industry. Recently, representatives havestated their desire to employ roughly 1,000 individuals by the end of the year."

This looks interesting. I added a few things from Abra's website, too. https://ripplenews.tech/2018/09/05/abra-now-allows-cryptocurrencies-trading-via-bank-accounts/ https://www.abra.com/ "Abra is the only app in the world that allows you to buy, store, and invest in 28 cryptocurrencies all-in-one place securely. Fund your account using bank transfer, credit/debit card, bitcoin or litecoin and start investing in cryptocurrencies like Ripple, Ether, Monero & more." "The wallet is unique because it is not custodial, in which the cryptocurrencies and the private key of the portfolio are held directly by the user. The Abra model is 100% peer-to-peer, with no intermediaries who can ever hold, manage or touch user funds at any time in any transaction." "Previously, Abra portfolios were financed by bank transfers in the United States, as well as by American Express, Visa and MasterCard debit and credit cards worldwide. Officially, Abra’s European bank transfers will take place using the SEPA guidelines. Within SEPA, several European member countries will also be able to deposit fiat national currency in addition to the euro. The SEPA area includes the 28 members of the European Union as well as four members of the European Free Trade Association (Austria, Germany, the Netherlands). , Belgium, Greece, Poland, Bulgaria, Hungary, Portugal, Cyprus, Ireland, Romania, Czech Republic, Italy, Slovak Republic, Denmark, Latvia, Slovenia, Estonia, Lithuania, Spain, Finland, Luxembourg, Sweden, France, Malta, Kingdom United and Croatia, Iceland, Monaco, Switzerland, Liechtenstein, Norway, San Marino)."

Ozzie getting in the game Australia’s First Regulated Crypto Exchange Adds Ripple XRP Support July 8, 2018 7:00 by Pratik Makadiya https://btcmanager.com/australias-first-regulated-crypto-exchange-adds-ripple-xrp-support/ "CEO Adrian Przelozny said “The addition of XRP is in line with our strategy of adding high-quality digital currencies in a thoughtful and measured way. There is a wide universe of digital currencies out there now, but to be listed on Independent Reserve they need to meet a range of criteria including quality, stability and volume metrics. Our clientele has been requesting XRP, and we felt this timing was right to offer it to them.” "Independent Reserve is AUSTRAC-approved cryptocurrency exchange and reportedly the first fully authorized trading desk in the country."

Hello all. I apologize in advance if this question is in the wrong place or repetitive...I'm new and, frankly, not really sure where to put this question in the context of the available topics. So I've experimented by buying a basket of IOU's representing different currencies and even bitcoin by using https://www.theworldexchange.net ledger interface, and now I have them just sitting in my XRP wallet. So I understand obviously how to send XRP from wallets to exchanges and such, that's simple...but I don't see any option for these IOU's. I see each has its' own unique address that I assume I could send to, and I guess that's another question. Exchanges: Which ones support and will redeem IOU's representing Dollars, Yen or Bitcoin for example? How can I send these IOU's properly from wallet to wallet? How will I know what addresses to use? How will I know they will be "honored" by the exchange? Is there anything special I need to do with the destination tag or invoice ID? If I send real bitcoin to an IOU address, will the ledger understand what to do, or would that get me screwed? (Not that I want to use Bitcoin, but this is for science.) If the question is repetitive I hope you'll be gentle with me and guide me to the proper resources. Thanks in advance!
