Charles Kelly Jr. also known as CJ the Smart Guy is a certified tax professional who focuses on cryptocurrency taxes, bookkeeping, and consulting while holding degrees in finance and accounting. He is the owner of an accounting firm, clothing line, podcast, and consulting company. CJ recently took his expertise and knowledge about Bitcoin on The Digital Financial Revolution Tour to ensure our communities are prepared and have the best information possible. In this interview on The Bitcoin Source, we discuss the types of taxable events people may encounter while buying, selling or trading cryptocurrencies, the impact Nipsey Hussle had on cryptocurrency and why hiring a CPA is still very important in the Bitcoin space.
"Crypto really wasn't considered money. The way the IRS looked at it was just property until 2017. Bitcoin anytime you sell it, trade it or exchange it for another crypto are all taxable events." -CJ the Smart Guy
