By bitcoin people I mean people who have actually invested.

So how does this work tax wise? Like, you're making gains (it just hit 13k). Do you get taxed when you 'cash out'? Or do you have to pay tax right now because its value went up? Who will issue you a tax form?

You get taxed capital gains when you cash out. You don't have to pay anything until then.

You also have to pay taxes if you buy anything with your Bitcoin or trade in Bitcoin for another cryptocurriency.
