Explain to me like I’m 5 - I’m asking for a family member who is well into crypto at this stage and I am not that informed on it at all: Can you withdraw cryptocurrency into your choice of account in monetary form? If you’ve say - $50-60,000 US dollars in a coin, ethereum for example or I believe his coin is on an exchange which hasn’t hit the big time yet ... I am doing my research this week on how to get it out of a “Wallet” app where I can see it, and get it physically into an account of mine. It has been murmured about possible tax implications if a large sum of money appeared into my UK or irish bank account. That’s why I’m thinking Revolut would be better. Although this could flag as money laundering to Revolut too? Only other option I’ve heard of to escape tax is bank account in portugal or the likes. But yeah main question - is it possible to even get your investment out of a wallet and into an account in US dollars before exchanging it back to euro/sterling.

I’ll just have to get off my backside and do my research on the notes and useful links on here. As I said it’s not for me, it’s a family member. Wherever they put it next is none of my business. I’m aware the illegal discussion of tax evasion is already against boards.ie rules on more than just this forum.

The only legal way to avoid this is to become tax resident in another country before making your profit, then you abide by the laws of that country and it's CGT rules, if it has any.

That’s why they aren’t completely up to date on it all technologically, although they’ve tried their best in their 50s to gain knowledge on it as best they can. Alas, I’ve been asked to come in for help and I stayed away from the whole crypto world until now. I get what you’re saying though, how would someone not know after investing money. They were asked to invest as a trusted small group, so.... they’ve done business over the years in other industries and it turned out profitable. Good relationship outside of business sphere
