Reader comment on: IRS To Tax Bitcoins

Bit coin is treated as if you were a gold miner, I.E. you would pay tax on the amount mined less expenses. If your an investor, its will be treated just like a stock or bond. If paid wages it is just like being paid in yen or Euros or any other currency. Very consistent treatment.
