Here is an interesting take on it. Do we think the asset is hive power or vests? Because a vest goes up in value versus hive power I think about 3% p.a.
So if the underlying assets is vests, then you'll only have to pay tax on the capital gains in most jurisdictions (on the 3% not the curation rewards) whereas if you think the asset is hive power then you need to pay income tax on the 3% p.a increase in value of the vests.
On rewards no matter how I look at it, this is income in the current year.
Not tax advice..just my thoughts.
