What is a “like-kind exchange”?
Could you elaborate on the concept of a "like-kind exchange"? I've heard it mentioned in relation to tax regulations, but I'm not entirely clear on its definition and applications. Specifically, what types of assets are considered "like-kind" and how does this exchange work? Does it involve the direct swapping of assets or a more complex process? I'm particularly interested in understanding how this concept applies in the realm of cryptocurrency and finance, as I've noticed some parallels being drawn between traditional tax regulations and those pertaining to digital assets.
