Do not think that the application of crypto tax is a bad thing. I see from a different point of view that the tax on crypto tells the government that it accepts bitcoin as a payment system and that it is good for bitcoin advancement in the future. Sometimes I feel confused with people who do not want the tax imposed on crypto, they want the facilities provided by the government continue to be fixed but they do not pay taxes, how the government can facilitate if its citizens are not on paying taxes.

I dont think so. To day, 17/01/2017 is deadline for tax in USA. Many people who have profit with Crypto in year MUST pay taxation. They must sell many crypto to enough money to tax. So, i think to day is a "bad day", "downtrend" is coming soon

I think this cryptocurrency tax for holders is nor required because we been already have transaction fee for the miners or fees for trades on exchange sites and I think it is really hard to tax for the holders because crypto holders are anonymous, but this crypto tax is also good for the economy and maybe this tax will not happen this time.

Crypto users give up a lot of privacy when they go through KYC procedures on regulated exchanges.  In the future, more and more of their information will probably end up being given to governments.

The IRS has been attempting to get information from Coinbase users for ages now, and has succeeded in getting information for some of their users.  It'll only be a matter of time until most crypto users (everyone except those that are really determined to avoid paying taxes) end up having to pay tax because of the information they give away to exchanges.
Beliefs are nearly irrelevant in this case.  Even members of the Libertarian Party and people with similar political ideologies have to pay at least some taxes (such as sales taxes when they buy goods), and evading other taxes can get you in a lot of trouble in the long run.
 

According to me, the cryptocurrency taxes are very much required because being a very very successful cryptocurrency, bitcoin possess only single disadvantage and that is it's illegal use because having no authorized governing body over it, BTC is also use in some sort of illegal activities like terrorism and bribe killing, therefore taxation is required over it, so that government could control it and further there will be no such activities.

Payment of taxes must not be considered as a burden in general. As a responsible citizen of a country where you live, it is your moral obligation to contribute to the development of that nation, and if paying taxes is the way, then you must never back off!! But when you talk about taxation on the crypto earnings, most of the people resent because they see no point in paying taxes on their earnings in which government has literally no role to play.

But when a country accepts a currency or make it legal in concrete terms, then taxation is liable to be imposed and the residents have no choice but to pay. But there are countries like India where there is no aceptance for crypto currencies, so in these countries, there is no pint of imposting taxation on bitcoin.

the government is taking tax on your "gains". gains on what? on your fiat that you invested in cryptocurrencies. in fact in some countries if you are not invest in in bitcoin then the government will not take any taxes from you. you can have 10000BTC and spend it freely in Japan without paying any taxes on your purchases. so in a way it is regulated.

Tax season is here and I think that due to the regulations lacking and policies not in place yet the bulk or the whole of the cryptocurrency users are non-chalant in their dealings with this just because of how it is possible and easy for then to evade and not pay anything with how the regulations are now. But as soon as bitcoin is formally acknolwedged and a set of rules ratified then we can expect to have our beloved bitcoin taxed it is just a matter of when

In my point of view taxation in crypto is a good thing for crypto users because it means that crypto is highly accepted by the government and being legalized. But there is one factor that i am concern of, i think taxation is depending on the gains you earn right? I think the users who loss in crypto  maybe will be exempted of this tax because how can they pay the tax that they loss? That is my own opinion though.
