Wake Up! The Government is Going After Self Custody of Crypto
people better wake up to what’s going on
cuz this is huge and you have to
understand all governments are
tyrannical and as cryptocurrency
Enthusiast we will always be in an
adversarial position this is starting to
get scary and most people have no idea
what’s going on it started out of course
with the SEC ruffling some feathers
suing people like Ripple they’re not
having great success but now we see the
doj the FBI uh the SC C and the IRS all
kind of attacking crypto under this idea
that everything is either a mixing
service or some sort of money
transmitter uh the first article I will
show you is in regards to Samurai wallet
Founders and CEOs of crypto mixing
service arrested and charged with money
laundering and unlicensed money
transmitting offenses now that’s what I
want you to uh keep your eye on that
term unlicensed money transmitting what
does that mean well it could be a
non-custodial wallet it could be a node
or validator Runner it could be a lot of
different things and this case against
Samurai wallet was brought by the doj
but as we will see this is going to be a
continuing theme Here IRS right now they
just released it’s an unfinished form
it’s a 1099 da and uh the US tax agency
has shared what the form might look like
and it shows you where their thinking is
one of the items on there
is self- custody they want the IRS wants
your self- custody wallet whether it’s
treasure Ledger uh some wallet metamask
whatever it is they want to claim that
those you know devices or Services those
are Brokers and they want those Brokers
to 1099 the users what does this really
mean at the heart of things well if
they’re a broker they’re going to have
to have control over that wallet aren’t
they cuz what happens if you just put my
name is Jeb MB and you put in a fake uh
social security number like that’s not
going to be effective they’re going to
have to have controls over those
Services uh in order to shut off your
access and if the government can shut
off your access for not complying with
1099s well they can shut off your access
for any reason they deem fit this is
exactly where they’re trying to push
this industry they want you investing
through Black Rock they want you to use
coinbase and Kraken and all the
exchanges yeah you might be able to send
a payment but it needs to go through
those Services they like custodial
wallets because they can seize your
assets they can track everything you do
uh to a finer degree and this is where
they want to push the space wake up
understand this when you look at the
court case against ethereum and really
consensus what are they focusing on
metamask and that metamask is a broker
that metamask needs to register as a
broker they need to track they need to
1099 and of course they would need to
have controls over this service so they
can censor transactions seize assets
things of this nature people think this
is only the United States I guarantee
you much of Europe would follow suit if
they are successful here and some people
say I don’t care I just want to make
money if you take away the self- custody
as aspect of cryptocurrencies you ain’t
going to make any money cuz they are
worth worthless the same is the system
we are trying to get out of this isn’t
about evading tax look you have to pay
your tax you got to book those
transactions properly report your
income understand that but at the same
time it doesn’t mean you want to give
tyrannical government’s control over
your money it’s the whole point of what
we are doing here to escape this and
they are trying to encircle us and most
people don’t even understand look what
the FBI is saying they’re warning
against crypto money transmitters now
this appears to be aimed at mixers I’m
telling you it’s not that is the term
they will use to make you think oh
everything’s okay they’re just after
these criminal mixers oh no they are
after money transmitters and they’re
going to deem everybody a money
transmitter whether you’re a node your
self- custody everything is going to be
a money transmitter uh and their
tyrannical views and again you’re seeing
the IRS the doj the SEC the FBI and I’m
sure there’s other reptilian
organizations out there that want to end
self custody and it will not just be in
the United States this is worldwide and
crypto better wake up and understand
what they’re doing here this is
absolutely an assault on this crypto
space uh wake up understand that and we
have to fight back against this because
this is bigger than just trying to claim
that a coin uh when it’s sold on the
secondary Market needs to be registered
is a Securities offering this is
stripping the users of their ability to
hold their own value to send payments
where they think they need to go and
ultimately fight back against tyranical
governments which is the whole point of
this digital asset Revolution most
people are blind they don’t see it
happening and it is a big deal let me
know what you think down below and as
always please like Please Subscribe the
revolution will be televised right here
on Jungle link
Every government regulator from the SEC to the IRS is making a move on self custody of crypto assets. They want you using BlackRock to invest and hosted wallets for transactions. This will effect every blockchain.

You'll own nothing and be super happy…….. Plebs
It can't be a money transmitter if they don't officially recognize it as money. And if it is money they can't tax it. 😂 In my state silver and gold are recognized as money and are not taxable. Same situation.
Brandon Gary Lizzy here to stay. 2024 is a done deal already.
No TRUST in Gov!! Vote them out!!! SEC needs to be shut down and reorganized! How much XRP does Gary Gensler own? How much has he bout over the last three years!!
I wouldn’t worry about any self custody or tax issues. I wouldn’t claim a single thing until they get their shit together.
IRS is an illegal entity and should be pushed against! Over reach and always wanting more! Let’s all by silver now, maybe we’ll forget about crypto…….. leave us alone!! MetaMask is a broker??? WTF idiots….. moon is made of gas too…. Our law makers are idiots and they WILL NOT MAKE LAWS FOR ME!
Close it all down!!
Nebraska just passed a law where we don’t pay capital gains on gold and silver!! that’s probably where it’s gotta be
What is the difference between people withdrawing cash from their banks and withdrawing crypto from Exchanges?
What about Exchanges like Mt Gox? What leave your money there so you can lost young entire investment?
How is it okay to withdraw your money from a bank that is about to collapse?
That is your property you earned. They didn’t say jack shit about it until now.
What law says you can’t hold your own investments?
This is total B.S. and every pone knows it.
Our constitutional rights are privacy. Rights are being trampled on constitutional rights stay strong.! if a regulator is not upholding our constitutional rights they need to be removed by force if necessary and Elizabeth Warren is the first to go vote her out New Hampshire pull your head out of your ass!!
We are letting a couple of state senators and a couple of government office administrators to set the rule of law and dictate to us what we are and aren’t enough is enough!!
I am already getting 1099’s from the exchanges I use for fiat offramp/onramp. If we use crypto as value for exchange between individuals, wouldn’t that be exactly as if I sent you $100 for your birthday? Not a taxable event unless I exceed a certain amount. There is no escaping the worlds monetary system and regulation. They have the guns, the courts, and the prisons to get their way. This is one of the reasons I hold XRP. They have a grip on reality to make the economic system more efficient. BTC is declared money. That is because all the regulations possible are now welded to BTC.
So my comment was deleted? The real Truth none of this nonsense matters
I guess that people are already aware, now is the time to unite
Jungle , one thing you forgot to mention, you need the whole world on board for them to control this…impossible
Keep paying your taxes like good little sheep…
If the IRS implemented this requirement, would I comply?
Yes. In spades. So much so that my tax filing would be so massive, the cost to audit it would far exceed the bureaucracy's resources.
The response to fascist government is to use Cloward-Piven techniques.

Thank you Jungle.
Today, El Salvidor is no tax under BTC. Puerto Rico is no tax for BTC w 6 months home ownership.
🖕 the enemy within controlling us cloaked as protection.
Super video Jungle 💥💯
This is troubling. I’m not going to give them any information that would make me vulnerable. Will they find every source? That’s an AI issue.
Until it’s directed, I don’t give them anything.
Still waiting for Congress to pass a crypto bill.
Pay your taxes bro

looks like its time to go lunarpunk…
