最新报道：Bill Miller IV, chief investment officer at Miller Value Partners, said governments have no right to tax Bitcoin because it doesn’t require any administrative effort to govern ownership. “It doesn’t make sense for them to reach out,” Miller told Natalie Brunell on the Coin Stories podcast on Wednesday. Miller, who is known for being an early advocate for Bitcoin (BTC), said Bitcoin doesn’t rely on government infrastructure to verify or enforce property rights the way traditional assets, like real estate, do. “When you buy and sell a house, all the recordkeeping taxes, all the taxes go into keeping track of who owns what,” Miller said. “The reality is, if you think about why you pay taxes in society, it’s to enforce property rights,” he added. Miller said that’s not necessary with Bitcoin. “The government didn’t create Bitcoin, so that’s an important point to keep in mind,” he said, adding, “The blockchain does the automation of property for itself, right?” Earlier this year, it was rumored that Eric Trump, son of U.S. President Donald Trump, proposed eliminating capital gains taxes on certain U.S. cryptocurrencies. On the possibility of Bitcoin being exempt from capital gains tax, Miller said, “Whether that will happen eventually, who knows, but it’s very cool that Bitcoin doesn’t have wash sale rules.” Asked if he thought Bitcoin would be subject to property taxes the same way the U.S. taxes properties annually based on market value, he said he wasn’t sure, but “there are good reasons not to.” Meanwhile, Miller said traditional asset managers still face hurdles when it comes to buying Bitcoin, largely because of uncertainty around taxation. “Even as fund managers, we still have a huge hurdle to actually buying it because if we buy ETFs and sell them at the wrong time, then the tax rules around bad income, all of that needs to be worked out,” he said.

Bill Miller IV is the son of legendary investor Bill Miller III, a fund manager known for outperforming the S&P 500 for 15 consecutive years at investment giant Legg Mason. In a January 2022 interview, Miller III said he holds 50% of his net worth in Bitcoin and related investments in major industry companies such as Michael Saylor's Strategy and BTC mining company Stronghold Digital Mining.
