Want to maximize your Bitcoin holdings without selling? Here's a compelling strategy: tapping into liquidity solutions lets you access capital while keeping your BTC intact. The real win? You sidestep the taxable events typically tied to outright sales—depending on your jurisdiction's tax framework, this approach can be a game changer for long-term holders. Instead of liquidating positions and triggering capital gains, you maintain your exposure to Bitcoin while unlocking the dry powder you need. It's a way to have your cake and eat it too, especially if you're betting on BTC appreciation down the line.

Hmm, this approach sounds good, but it still depends on how the jurisdiction classifies it. Be careful not to shoot yourself in the foot.

Haha, here comes the concept selling again. I've heard this logic too many times... Do you really want to use borrowing and lending to avoid taxes?
Lending out BTC for liquidity indeed works well, but what about the risks? Collateral volatility, liquidation lines, borrowing interest rates... who will calculate these details for you?
But on the other hand, if you can really survive the bear market and wait for the next surge, it’s indeed attractive. The problem is, you have to make it to that moment.
Tax authorities aren’t fools either; they will eventually target this approach.

How should I put it... If I had known about this trick earlier, I wouldn't have been so eager to sell in 2021.

Reentrancy vulnerabilities in lending protocols, now renamed as "liquidity solutions"? How original.

Well, I've been playing this trick for a long time. Isn't lending protocols attractive? Holding BTC and earning interest while HODLing.
