On the Neocash Radio podcast Ep182, we discussed a searing 31-page report from the U.S.Treasury Inspector General for Tax Administration that summarized a nine-month audit of the IRS’ (gross mis)handling of virtual currencies including Bitcoin: Questions from the public seeking guidance on how to comply with tax regulations often went unanswered, and the most common IRS tax forms—like 1099s and the W-2—have no dedicated space for virtual currencies to be reported.Another major hurdle for compliance is that the IRS categorizes Bitcoin as property rather than a currency, which they claim subjects it to capital gains tax.They also claim this would require users to determine what portion of which Bitcoin was used to make EACH purchase based on a daily exchange rate, converted all into dollars, and then at reporting time, calculate whether there were any gains or losses from when the user received those Bitcoin.Ahead of the seemingly inevitable Bitcoin hard fork, numerous cryptocurrency exchanges issued a joint letter declaring the Bitcoin Core Implementation to be forever known as BTC or XBT and the Bitcoin Unlimited Implementation to be referred to as BTU or XBU.

The list contains such names as Bitfinex, BTCC, Kraken and Shapeshift, but absent are power players Coinbase, BitPay, Huobi, and OKcoin.Though there were several developments from ShapeShift.io CEO Erik Voorhees and Kraken CEO Jesse Powell: ShapeShift and Kraken state that they signed a different version of the recent Hardfork Statement.from btc For the record, myself (personally) and @ShapeShift_io would use the BTC/Bitcoin name for whichever chain unambiguously “won,” over time.— Erik Voorhees (@ErikVoorhees) March 17, 2017 Related reading: Neocash Radio podcast co-host Dr. Darren Tapp shared a new post to our blog on Monday entitled “So Bitcoin Might Fork.Here’s What to Expect…“ In it you’ll find what will happen if the Bitcoin blockchain sees a chain fork, potentially creating two separate blockchains, one representing Bitcoin Core and another representing Bitcoin Unlimited (similar to what happened with Ethereum and Ethereum Classic after last year’s DAO debacle.)

, a Bitcoin mining pool responsible for around 15% of today’s Bitcoin network hashrate.(Plans are also in the works for Bitmain to build a BTC mining facility that could house enough equipment for Antpool to control upwards of 45% of the Bitcoin network hashrate.)Now that Antpool has begun mining BTC blocks that signal support for Bitcoin Unlimited, there is talk that Bitcoin Core developers may be researching a change aimed at limiting the mining power of massive Chinese Bitcoin miners.The new Proof-of-Work algorithm would still work for ASIC hardware, but would require a redesign of the current SHA-256 ASICs, rendering all current Bitcoin miners effectively useless.(This is being billed by Bitcoin Core as an “upgrade” to Bitcoin’s current Proof-of-Work algorithm.)Changing Bitcoin’s proof-of-work to prevent miners from mining is the most absurd and reckless thing I’ve heard in the scaling debate.— Erik Voorhees (@ErikVoorhees) March 20, 2017 Am I misunderstanding?

Will we see similar news from other Chinese cryptocurrency exchanges in the near future?In an article entitled “Forget Bitcoin.The Blockchain Could Reveal What’s True Today and Tomorrow”, WIRED writer Cade Metz discusses how blockchain-enabled prediction markets such as Augur, Gnosis, Bitcoin Hivemind are providing economic incentives for accurately predicting future events.Companies like Microsoft and Google are already using prediction markets internally to test forecasting.Zcash Company Announces the Zcash Foundation With a mission intended to “give every person in the world economic freedom,” the company behind Zcash is looking to create an independent, inclusive, non-profit body to steward the technology in the interests of all users.The Zcash Foundation looks to be that body.A portion of the Zcash Founder’s Reward will fund the foundation.The initial board of directors has been selected by Zooko Wilcox but none of the directors are employees of the Zcash Company nor can the Zcash Company defund the foundation.
