Could you please clarify if purchasing a house with Bitcoin is subject to taxation? I'm interested in understanding the potential tax implications of using cryptocurrency for such a significant transaction. Specifically, are there any capital gains taxes involved, or do the rules vary based on the country's tax regulations? Additionally, are there any unique tax considerations to keep in mind when using Bitcoin for real estate purchases? Thank you for your insight.
