100k in Europe, all above not insured.
Actually wondering how they would solve the peoples lones and properties in a case of going bankrupt and not being bought by another bank?

In Belgium (and i guess the other European countries to) this is 100k is for each bank.
You could have higher insured amounts if you use accounts on multible banks.

This is important. Just under 50% of crypto asset holders will die before average life expectancy, so everyone should make preparations just in case!

@DavidMc0 - This is an interesting statement! Lots of ways of looking at this:[quote=āDavidMc0, post:1728, topic:9923ā]

Not @DavidMc0! - There are plenty of options for making provisions to make sure your cryptostuff lives on after you ābecome unavailableā. I was biding my time, having fun thinking of clever ways to do this. It was the recent surge in cryptostuff values which kicked me into just doing it in a non-clever way.
edit: that is to say, itās better to just get it done. I think the chance of me ābecoming unavailableā is much higher than the risk of a bad actor getting hold of my cryptostuff as a result of my not-very-clever provisioning.

Iāve been divesting on startups, firstly on blockchain based services and then in more broad technology companies.
When there is a gold rush, sell shovels and pickaxes.

I would think that using oneās will would be a suitable way.
Just plaster the 1st half of your private keys in suitable places. EG in the house, family
Then the last half in a sealed copy of your will only to be opened on ones death. (obviously a few copies)
Even if your family doesnāt know crypto then they will learn quick once they are told (in the will) that its worth a lot of money. But obviously it would be best to educate them yourself before any sad events occur.
I plan on educating my eldest daughter and eldest son who both seem to be the most clued up on the matter.

I have a simple plan. Never cash out my MaidSafecoin supply and only cash out my Safecoin supply. Only cash out my Safecoin supply when Safecoin can be directly traded to fiat at a well established exchange.
Price can go up and down, but it does not matter right now. It will only mater when we have a live healthy operational network.

I been out of loop. But holy cow. It is looking good.
meanwhile, look at eth. Lmao. It has 15 billion dollar market cap. Almost HALF of the Bitcoin market cap.
Not only that, BTC Dominance is at 44.8% at this time of writing. Disregard of Ripple, it is well below 60%.
Guys. I think weāre witnessing massive exodus from bitcoin to ethereum.

Bitcoin is also pretty much at all time high, so exodus probably isnāt the right term (although there certainly are many who have switched over). Iād say more like a lot of new money coming into crypto, but most not landing in Bitcoin.
Btw rumor of Bitcoin āscaling compromiseā hard fork. That could get interestingā¦

Does it fall under capital gains?
I have been trying to suss that out recently, but thats the only thing that would seem right, surely its not classed as income tax?
Also, if your total assets are over a certain amount your supposed to declare them all.
Do you know what are the downfalls / advantages of doing that?

You talking about UK? It seems yes, Bitcoins would be classed as CGT:

BTC has touched $2,300 and as a result of holding its price well, Maid is around $0.39.
Barmy. This rally defies belief. It wasnāt long ago I was marvelling at $1,000 btc.
