Unbelievable that people are searching for ways to pay taxes whenever they can. It's not taxable, because they can't hack the blockchain and most accounts are just anonymous profiles.
I guess you missed the update from Steemit.inc where they said that they would cooperate with requests from the authorities when they made everyone agree to the new TOS some months back.
I know where you stand now though so won't broach the subject again. My apologies my approach and reasoning seems to have offended you.
Thank you :) Of course, I agreed to the new TOS and I know that they need to cooperate with the authorities, but from a technical standpoint of view they can't give personal information about you to the authorities, because they don't know who you are. We never needed to enter our name or address in the registration process, so it would be nearly impossible to make a connection to one individual with the data they have.
It may be possible for many accounts by watching them long term and trying to connect the available data, but it would be an enormous expense to do so. Many wales and larger stake holders registered an anonymous account (not on Steemit) and there is no data about them stored anywhere.
Of course, people like me can easily be tracked down, because I registered a few servers and websites, therefore I will pay taxes, if I should reach the minimum yearly earnings that is required for paying taxes (which is still not the case for me). It depends on what we are earning elsewhere, but for most people with only a few thousand SP I don't see any risk currently. That may all change in the coming years, but for now the authorities have enough other work to do.
