Bitcoiners Grilled by Tax Agency About Crypto Investments, Plus XRP Independence From Ripple – Ethereum, Tron, Litecoin, Stellar, IOTA

by Daily Hodl Staff
March 9, 2019
in Bitcoin

From a tax questionnaire in Canada to an effort to make Ethereum accessible to newbies, here’s a look at some of the stories breaking in the world of crypto.

Bitcoin

The Canada Revenue Agency (CRA) is circulating a questionnaire to find out detailed information about the investing, spending and trading habits of Canadians who hold or use Bitcoin and other cryptocurrencies. Residents who engaged in crypto activity in 2018 may receive a 13-page form filled with 54 questions, as the CRA investigates 60 active audits related to crypto.

Kyle Torpey, the Forbes contributor who broke the story, shared images of the questionnaire on his Twitter account. Canadians are questioned about crypto platforms Changelly and ShapeShift, and various mixing services that are used to mask the identity of crypto recipients and senders.

Ethereum

God’s Unchained, the first competitive e-sports game on the Ethereum network, just hired a new UX designer to make Ethereum fool-proof for newbies.

“One of the biggest challenges for onboarding new users will be the inherent complexities that come with using blockchain technologies. Designing intuitive games and applications is a challenge, crypto makes it exponentially more difficult. Nic’s approach, holistic vision, and attitude towards experience design impressed us early on. In the last 3 weeks he’s demonstrated his abilities exceptionally, and we believe he will be instrumental in many areas including helping us noob-proof Ethereum.”

Ripple and XRP

Ripple has released an extended cut of The Ripple Drop, giving a tour of its new office in London.

Meanwhile, XRP supporters are using a temporary issue with Ripple’s website to highlight the XRP Ledger’s independence from the San Francisco-based company. When Ripple.com went down unexpectedly, the XRP Ledger kept on ticking.

Maybe Ripple trying to prove XRP is not a security?

"If Ripple disapears the XRPL will continue to work".

Putting the theory to the test ?
