Anyone getting involved in NFT’s is a scammer, a money launderer, or a rube.

The idea that the club or league should touch any of it is disgraceful.

My Nanna felt the same way about DVD players
I don’t know what this has to do with NFT’s - so if you could take it to the appropriate thread, that’d be great!

Crypto really is like gambling though. I have 4 friends that heavily invested in it. One of them was up easily 500k, problem is he didn’t want to withdraw anything as he has to pay tax in Australia. He also didn’t want to withdraw as it was steadily going up. He’s lost a massive chunk of it at this stage with all the drops etc.
On another one, went to school with a guy who bought bitcoin when it first came out. Ended up unwittingly throwing out the hard drive that it was stored on… He would have been up a few million when he realised.
Seems like a lot of people with significant paper gains in crypto struggle to convert those into fiat currency, especially non-USD currency.
Quite a few years ago I used to play golf with a friend who invested in the stock market. I’ll call him Harry for the story. Prior to our Saturday game another friend who I will call Bill told me that he was getting great dividends from his Blackmore’s shares.
During our game I passed on what Bill had told me to Harry. Harry, went off on a rant that Bill was an idiot and would not know what he was talking about.
For the following couple of weeks I followed how Blackmore shares were performing. I was impressed and for a lark I bought a parcel for about $4.00 a share.
For the nest 12 months I took great delight in informing Harry how well Blackmore’s were going and what a shame it was he didn’t buy in.
After about 18 months I sold the parcel for about $9.00 a share and took a respectable capital gain. I spent some the next couple of months feeling clever and giving Harry heaps.
I need say no more.
Must have been last century, We bought Blackmores at $28 a decade ago, they’re now $88, we sold half at $160 3 years later and kept the rest. Nice dividends as well.
My wife is so much better at picking stocks than me.
I was once pressured into entering a “fun” run that was sponsored by Blackmores. Fuck Blackmores
It’s really very easy and I never had any issues from the major exchanges with large amounts. Doing the basics and testing smaller withdrawals then moving to bigger ones to be safe in case anything is held up worked without a single problem. The ‘problem’ being described here is a desire to not incur CGT (especially if held for under a year as you don’t get the 50% discount).
When I say large amounts I mean multiple millions, I know what was specifically being described.
If you have millions in crypto why arent you a patron ya fucker? 
Kidding, all power to you if you’re being successful in that space at any level, I don’t hide my bias against what I percieve as the risks, I’m too close to retirement to be dicking around in volatile unregulated instruments.

hah, nowhere near the millions, maybe next bull run I will get there 
That is a wise attitude to have, I definitely do not mess around with my lifesavings either but there is a place for alternative investments in my portfolio for sure, the rewards are too great to not be exposed to at least a bit (in my situation).
My mate was looking to move to Germany for a year. Apparently they don’t have Capital Gains Tax on crypto? Or something to the effect. This was 3 years ago mind you
There’s been so much change the past few years, and especially clamp downs on crypto regarding taxes, hard to keep up. I think the big one with no CGT nowadays is Singapore, but even then they have to declare it as income from memory if they’re ‘trading’ as a profession so can’t totally get away with it.
