NFT Tax-Loss Harvesting: What it is and How it Works

NFT Tax-Loss Harvesting has become an increasingly popular tax strategy used by investors who invest in Non-fungible tokens or NFTs. These unique digital assets are stored on a blockchain, which makes them easy to transfer and trade.

Yet, like with any investment, it's important to think about how buying and selling NFTs can affect your taxes. This blog will discuss NFT Tax-loss selling, what it is, and how it can be applied to NFTs. We will also explore the potential risks and considerations and provide a step-by-step guide on implementing NFT Tax-Loss selling.

What is NFT Tax-Loss Harvesting?

Tax-loss harvesting is a strategy investors use to offset capital gains taxes by selling investments at a loss. The losses can then be used to offset gains in other assets. This strategy is especially beneficial for NFT investors, as NFTs are known for their volatility and the potential for significant gains and losses.

NFT tax-loss selling works similarly to traditional securities tax-loss selling. When an investor sells an NFT at a loss, they can use that loss to offset any gains they may have made in other NFT investments. This can be done by selling the losing NFT and buying a similar one at a lower price or by waiting 30 days and repurchasing the same NFT to avoid triggering the wash sale rule.

How to Implement NFT Tax-Loss Harvesting

Implementing NFT tax-loss selling is a relatively simple process, but it is crucial to keep accurate records to ensure compliance with tax regulations. Here are the steps to follow:

Identify NFT losses: Review your portfolio of NFT investments and identify any that have decreased in value.

Sell losing NFTs: Sell the losing NFTs to realize the losses.

Offset gains: Use the losses to offset your progress in other NFT investments.

Wait 30 days: If you plan to repurchase the same NFT, wait at least 30 days to avoid triggering the wash sale rule.

Keep accurate records: Record all NFT purchases and sales, including dates, prices, and any gains or losses.

Potential Risks and Considerations

While NFT tax-loss selling can be a beneficial strategy for investors, there are potential risks and downsides to consider.

Wash sale rule: The wash sale rule prohibits an investor from repurchasing the same investment within 30 days of selling it at a loss. This can limit the ability to use tax-loss harvesting for NFTs.

Tax regulations: As the rules governing NFTs are continually developing, investors should be aware of any changes that could affect their taxes.

Record-keeping: Accurate record-keeping is essential for compliance with tax regulations. Investors must keep track of all NFT purchases and sales, including dates, prices, and any gains or losses.

Consult a tax professional: It is essential to consult a tax professional before implementing tax-loss harvesting strategies. They can help ensure compliance with tax regulations and provide guidance on the potential benefits and risks of NFT tax-loss selling.

Wrapping Up

In conclusion, NFT Tax-Loss Harvesting is a tax strategy that can benefit investors who trade Non-fungible tokens. By offsetting NFT gains with NFT losses, investors can reduce their tax liabilities and potentially increase their profits. However, there are potential risks and downsides to consider, and it's essential to consult a tax professional and use software such as Descrypt before implementing any tax-loss harvesting strategies.

when i heard abt es whole thing this was my first thought

[syntaxevasion]

holy FUCK that last post popped off like crazy <3 heres some more descryption stuff weve been working on

the (as of now) full lineup of menu cards, from left to right: story mode, rogue run, duels, puzzles, compendium (list of cards and sigils, explanation of game mechanics, or other important stuff), options, quit

hot new sexy trait displays for the gbc style

starter deck display screen, the last two being onyx and spells

rogue runs begin by having you sacrifice three of the five scrybes (refer to the last post), and the two remaining scrybes are the ones you've chosen to use their cards, nodes, bosses, in your run each scrybe has their own 8 starter decks which are all progressively unlocked a la kaycee mod - you can also see there's a second screen of decks to choose from

the scrybe of artistry galliard and his underlings: the scout, cartographer, and playwright he was once a pupil of magnificus but a difference of opinions caused the two to have a falling out, which is elaborated on in the story mode

some more artistry cards and full-art spells (full-arts will only display their sigils/stats when moused over so just imagine my cursor is over all 4 of them at once)

this one isn't actually descryption related, just some shitpost-y sprites or cards that didn't make the cut

Meet Pika!!!

He is a carnotaurus-demon-like creature that can shift into a big form and small form. Usually when hes about to make a kill or smells 'food' his insides light up. When he does that the faint screams of hell can be heard emmiting from inside of him.

Also who needs arms when you got a prehensile tail, that can hook in on your target no less.

Also he can smell sin :)

He is a very old character of mine.

He was inspired by bendy and the ink machine and all the old black and white cartoons like that.

Fandom Nation Batch One Redesign

a redesign?! in the year of twenty twenty four?!

hi folks heres another redesign for the fandom nation members!! concept dump: rixie - alien/star alien from a different universe and had somehow stumbled upon earth, called a shooting star draco - a dragon, been alive for a long time on earth lol crypt - retired agent who doesn't speak, no ones known their face in years.... are those black n red eyes their real eyes?! nate - half man, half robot who is vibing, you can count on him to fix ur shit

[laweema]

TIME FOR FREELINES HAS COME

Oh yeah.. these lines have been around for a year and a half, I draw them +- at the end of august of 2022, and honestly, I already dislike them a little, I see a lot of mistakes in them that I would like to fix with new Joy-style freelines, but a little later.. when will it be time to draw them)

I WANT TO POINT OUT THAT:

Although the lines are made in Joy's style, I don't really like dragons without a pelvis, with ears and elbow appendages on the wings, so I fixed these points, although I think in other lines I still add for canonicity …

I also thickened the wings so that they don't fly on toothpicks

And I also removed / added dorsal scales from some dragons, whose back scales in the pics from the book just went nowhere (Rainwing, Nightwing, Icewing, etc.)

And wings are not from the shoulders, because.. Well, they just can't grow there..

All theese things I descrypted in detail in my article in VK, so, you can read it there, if you interested (RU language) - Here

SO THE DESCRIPTION AND WHERE TO DOWNLOAD:

DOWNLOAD LINES >>> Here <<<

In the presented archive there are: > All 10 tribes of Wings of fire + Beetlewings in my view + Stormwingsmy fan tribe + Nightwing Skeleton. > And all of them are made in the style of the artist Joy Ang. > Also in each folder with the tribe there is a folder "Extra" which have additions - Bags. > All files have both separate images and PSDs.

And there are some easy rules of usage:

- You can change, add something of your own. - You can make adopts and sell them. - Do not assign authorship. - Do not sell the line. - Do not erase the watermark. (you can move it, but it must be visible)

A leap of faith and physics

We thought for a civilization to form, one needed liquid water, a stable planet with a hot core, and tardium crystals. Apparently, this is not so.

Because we just received a vibromessage over the tachyon network from an unknown source.

Which in itself would not be too unusual. Plenty of newly realized civilizations figure out how to configure tardium to send tachyon messages across isospace. Hoping someone will answer. We always do. It always takes some time to go from simple repeating messages to understanding one another. Most civilizations don't come up with the galactic standard modulation on their own. Nor do we know their form of communication all that well, language, culture, all of that.

First contact is always a lengthy affair, until the new species is integrated into the intergalactic community. Then follows the exchange of knowledge and culture, the setting up of historical archives and sharing of starcharts. Since light travels only at luxionic speed, the charts provide a valuable look at the past. Once the new civilization has been caught up to date, things tend to settle. Updates are fewer and far in between, and culture tends to somewhat homogenize. Not completely, of course, as everyone has different living circumstances, but with all the exchange between us, some settling is bound to happen.

But we know where tardium reserves are, have felt the reverb of our scans, we know where civilizations could potentially pop up. The message we received was unusual not because its source was unknown, but because it came from a sector without any sufficient tardium deposits.

That... shouldn't even be possible!

The signal is also a bit noisy. Strange. Usually, the bigger the tardium array, the more self-stabilization should occurr. And for interstellar communication, you tend to need quite large arrays. So then why was there so much noise?

It was clearly a signal, and according to the triangulators, it came from the outer third of a dark spiral galaxy. We call them that, since they were never really observed, at least not with any isocartography. We only know they're there due to shared star charts. No idea what's going on with them at the current isotime. We can't know, without any tardium resonance to pick up.

Anyway, of course we answered. Their signal had been prime numbers, if we demodulated it correctly, followed by things we couldn't really make sense of. It was standard practice to begin communications with mathematics, and fundamental harmonics. It's strange that they did that right away, but not unheard of. We sent back primes, and then a couple of playful harmonics. Music. What we received back was weird, because we thought it was music, but it wasn't.

It turned out to be a starchart, and not just any kind. Pulsars. We sent back a chart of their galaxy, as reconstructed from several older starcharts. Then, we waited for their answer. And waited. And waited. An entire solar cycle (of our species) later, we finally got another answer.

And it just would not stop. We recognized it was a series of images, or rather, rapid successions of images, together with harmonics on a different band as well. This was video! The footage depicted a bipedal species, with symbolics next to different features. The images cycled through different body parts, with different descryptions. We had a really hard time catching and saving all the data, a task which had to be offloaded to the communal computation grid, as our own planet simply did not have the capacity to do it alone. This should have tipped us off to what we were going to be dealing with, but it didn't.

We continued, almost business as usual, just a fair bit faster. Then objects were being shown, often together with the bipedals, and their corresponding glyphics were depicted right next to them. Also, each image was accompanied by a sound file. They really made learning their language easy for us. We learned that they called themselves Humans, and their home was Earth, a planet orbiting a yellow star. They were a surface dwelling species! Those are pretty rare, as most can not survive the exposure to open space for some reason. We then sent back images and glyphics of our own, matching them in their intent. We sent images of life forms, images of our own body parts, images of objects and always accompanied by isostandard glyphics.

Usually, once communication has come to a basic understanding, the exchange of culture would begin.

But the Humans had started out with primes and starcharts, so of course, their next communication wasn't about culture. We... honestly didn't know what exactly it was, for a while. Until some of the mathematicians from across the network found patterns. They were sharing mathematics with us!

Eager to help, we sent back entire databases full of insights. They requested more soon. So we sent more. And more. And more. We wondered how they could even store all that we sent them. We asked. They sent back something we didn't understand. We hoped the mathematicians could figure it out, but nope.

Eventually, we sent steam engine configurations, as well as the corresponding heating and shunting tardion-arrays used to power them. They sent back their own designs for steam engines. And other engines that seemed similar, but shoudn't work with steam. The machine configurations, piston layouts and such, were fairly primitive. As was to be expected from a new species. But they never sent us schematics of their heating or shunting arrays. When we asked how they kept things cool without shunting arrays, they sent back another steam engine. But, when we called it that, they corrected us. What they had shown us was a heat pump. They used the opposite effect, instead of creating movement from a temperature difference, they created a temperature difference from movement. We asked them why they wouldn't just use shunting arrays. They asked what those were.

And this is how we found out why they were in dark space. Why their signal was so noisy. And why they had never depicted heating or shunting arrays in their schematics.

They had practically no tardium. They simply did not have enough of it to make arrays, as we thought all civilizations do. The largest piece of tardium they had was the centerpiece of a gigantic machine. It was about the size of a human "nail", which is a vestigial claw originally used for superior grip on one of the native plant species of their planet.

We did not know how to respond. We could not comprehend how a civilization could form without tardium crystals. They asked us if we knew where more could be found, preferably near them. We didn't understand what they meant. Then they asked us how to locate reserves. We gave them the modulations that we use to scan for the crystals' tachyon resonance.

They thanked us, and ceased their questions. Then, communication became choppy. Only occasionally would we receive an exchange of culture. Their questions about mathematics and tardium crystals ceased.

---------------------

When we first received back an answer from the deep space tachyon dish, we were extatic. And shocked. And kind of in disbelief. Nobody had really known if it would work. Still, everyone in the control room agreed that we should make sure it was really a signal, before we dropped that bombshell to the public.

We focused a couple more dyson collectors onto the dish, and changed the signal. Instead of primes and harmonics, this time, we encoded the pulsar chart, multiple times, in every encoding we could think of, and sent them all.

Only a few hours later, we received another signal from the previous location. The encoding was our own, easily recognized. With shaky hands, i pressed the 'open image file' button.

When i was greeted by a picture of the Milky Way, everyone in the room lost their collective shit.

"Holy Fuck!" "Oh my god." Someone fainted. Multiple people cried. Nobody minded any of that.

~~~

The prime administrator creased her brow. The direct line was ringing. This better be important. "Hello? Prime administrator here." From the other end, she could hear someone suppressing tears, and whimpering: "Tachyon dish project operator here. We... we."

"Everything ok over there?", she asked. What could possibly have happened that had the scientist crying? Was there an accident with the dyson swarm or something? Did people die? No, she trusted the operator of that experiment to not call unless it mattered to the entire human race.

A wet chuckle. "Better than ok. Maam? We... We're not alone."

Not alone? What does that...? Oh. OH! oh

"Are.. you sure?" Dammit. Now even her own voice was shaking.

"We sent a pulsar chart and got a beautiful image of the Milky Way back, in the same image file type. Pretty sure at this point."

~~~

The following year was downright insane. The mere confirmation that we weren't alone in the universe spurred us all on. Artists did their best to show all sides of us, scientists got together to determine what questions we should ask, even the long obsolete military awakened from its slumber, churning out tactical analyses of possible tachyon based weaponry, and how to defend against it.

Some people were panicking, others in denial, but most relished the opportunities that might open up.

Policies were made, on how to handle aliens that would come to the solar system. Tachyon mechanics, an until now unproven theory, made leaps and bounds, scientists working as hard as they could to understand it better.

The dyson collectors were turned to multiple new research projects, powering large machines that channeled vibrations into the tiny crystals we had found to pick up on tachyon vibrations. The largest one that we had discovered while asteroid mining was still in the communication dish, but the smaller shrapnel, a couple millimeters in size at the most, were being utilized.

Eventually, after a year was up, communications resumed. The linguists sent data, and worked closely with the astronomers that had made the initial transmissions. We also received back data, and the scientific community devoured every piece of information. We learned their language as fast as we could.

But our requests for the sharing of scientific knowledge appeared to fall on deaf ears. Whenever we sent natural constants, or physical laws, we got nothing back. Well, almost. Our prodding did yield one answer: How to locate the crystals. Which were apparently common? Though our scans painted a different picture. We did have some scattered about the asteroid belt, yes. But the largest one we detected was only 3cm in diameter. A little bigger than the one in the communication dish, sure, but not that much.

We came to accept this, figuring that maybe there was some kind of prime directive that forbade the sharing of further technology. Actually, perhaps we leaned a bit too far into our Star Trek analogy. Because most of us would not get it out of our heads to try to build a warp drive. Well, not really a spacetime bending drive, but something that could go faster than light. Because, obviously, thanks to our discovery, we now knew that while the speed of light may be finite, the speed of information was not.

-----------------------------

After ten cycles of cultural exchange, the humans sent a request for isocoordinates of the nearest known civilization to their own. This request kind of drowned in the noise, we didn't really think about it much, we just transmitted our coordinates. Turns out, the nearest ones were us, in what the Humans call the Andromeda Galaxy.

Shortly after the request, they went totally vibrosilent. We tried and tried to contact them, but to no avail. This, while tragic, was a reality of civilization, though. Extinction events could always happen. Sometimes the affected civilization would realize in advance and send a couple warnings, but nobody could help them from afar, of course. So that's what we figured happened to Humanity. Maybe their sun blew up, or they got knocked away from it by a passing object, anything could have happened.

Many cycles passed. I had aged, my once young and springy exoskeleton now wobbly and soft, though my mind was still sharp enough to crew a communications array.

None of us were prepared for the schockwave resonating through our sensor grids. Multiple arrays straight up shattered. Luckily, as big as they were, there was nobody close to them, so no deaths. What the rest of them picked up though made no sense. We could determine there was a pulse, but no normal communication had that level of power, nor resonance.

Then, half a planetary rotation later, there was a new luminance in the sky. We were about to renew our arrays and update our starchart, when the light source moved. Toward the planet.

What?

And then, my assigned communications array resonated.

"This is the Human vessel Enterprise, calling anyone on the planet. Can you read us?" the crystal sang in choppy English, the language of the Humans. The ones we thought were extinct.

I scuttled to my post at the resonator, tuning it to reply:

"This is communications, we read you, but i don't understand? We are recovering from an unprecedented resonance pulse that shattered multiple arrays, sorry if the modulation is a bit off."

The answer was swift: "Sorry about that, our engines are a bit out of tune at this point. That pulse might have been us. Glad to hear you all down there, is anyone injured?"

"Your engines? And uh. No, nobody injured."

"Yes our engines, again, we apologize for that. But glad to know everyone is alright.

Requesting permission to land on the surface."

This was a momentous occasion, which i didn't realize until later on. The entire tachyon network would eventually refer to this exact communication as a reference time. This exact moment would come to be known as 0:0 PFJ

0 Cycles and 0 rotations Past First Jump.

The only thing i remember is absently giving permission, not quite understanding what exactly they were requesting here. If i had, i would have convened with the councils beforehand.

Then, the cave began to shake. It wasn't coming from any of the arrays. It was coming from the surface.

~~~

They. They were here. The Humans were here. On the surface. Of. Of our planet. What? How?!

Most importantly, why?!

Then i remembered the stories about their exploration of the surface of their own planet. How they had sent people to their poles, despite their biology not being fit to survive there. And several did die! How they climed mountains. Made pressurized vessels to dive below the surface of their open ocean. We asked them why. They told us.

I realized at that moment, not how they were here. But why.

"Because we could, and no human had been there before," they had answered back then.

New week, new Veil Log entry, same me (insane).

Chioma: Chioma Esi, research log: Veil interface. Maya and I have finalized a prototype interface for the Veil. Hopefully, it'll allow our research team to investigate it in detail. The system's designed like an orchestra, with a central "conductor" directing a symphony of minds to act like a distributed network. The... idea came to us by watching how collective networks like SIVA and the Vex operate. The hope is we can aggregate and parse the vast amounts of psychic data emitting from the Veil. Turn it into something intelligible. If we're successful, the interface will provide us with a starting point for any future technological research tied to the Veil. The risks of — of such integration are high. The estimates mortality rates are... but I... I... I don't know what I'm doing. This is wrong. This is so wrong! We shouldn't — all she ever talks about is survival! "Think big picture!" What about your survival? What about your heart? My heart? [sighs tearfully] I can't keep doing this. I can't. I can't! Nimbus: Damn. Osiris: I... again, I see a shadow of myself in Maya Sundaresh. The man I could have become had I let obsession continue to rule me. I'm worried what the next recording will reveal. Nimbus: Me too.

This broke me. Chioma's VA is incredible.

But besides the emotional damage, this is once again super interesting. The prototype interface is one of the first things that we encounter as we're going towards the Veil from the final mission of the campaign. The first of the chairs we see is what Nimbus calls a CloudArk prototype:

It's here more generally referring to the room we're in itself; the room we're getting the logs from also features prototype interfaces that were used for initially communicating with and researching the Veil and matches the descryption of being designed like an orchestra. There's 12 of the chair-interfaces in there and they're all facing the Veil and there's a long walkway overlooking the facility that might be where the "conductor" would stand.

Either way, the early researchers found a way to tap into the Veil without getting physically close by plugging themselves into these machines. Having more people plugged in at the same time allowed them to spread the load of the psychic connection and limit casualties.

However, casualties were still happening. It's super interesting that Chioma is still reminding us that the base technology here was inspired by SIVA and the Vex because they're collective networks and they seem to have more success with this sort of thing. So the researchers have to also become a collective network by linking themselves through these machines with the Veil. Eerily similar now to how the Witness' people linked their minds.

This is all the beginnings of the CloudArk, where Neomuni upload themselves and live in a virtual reality. While their bodies are physically in cryo, their minds are in the CloudArk. Again, ominous now with the recent reveals about the Witness. I'm still of the belief that this ability will be important for us to be able to enter the portal. Really interesting re-reading this post now that we DO know about the Witness and that it merged its entire species into one being by using the knowledge of Darkness and the Veil; this now strengthens the possibility that in order to pass through the portal, we need to be psychically merged with... something. The CloudArk might end up being the technology we use to do it and we're being shown how the Neomuni discovered this technology and used it to make the CloudArk by imitating other "collective networks." So far only one "collective network" managed to successfully enter the portal: the Witness.

The rest of this, as I've said already, has broken me. Chioma's pain about Maya's descent into madness is truly heartbreaking and even more so with Osiris recognising his own obsessesion through Maya. Chioma's plea for Maya to stop this is also heartbreaking from our perspective because we know that they didn't stop. The technology was finished and constructed and is still in use today. And as an added beauty to this, it's a gay man finding a connection with a lesbian. I cannot even begin to express how incredible it feels to get this sort of insanely good scifi story where literally everyone involved in the quest is LGBT+.

All bosses

Here I'll post all the bosses that we foght in the game. Enjoy!

The first boss and also the first villain we met. He's loved <3

Fun facts about him: He looks like Hooktail from TTYD.  The repeating patterned segments of Fracktail's body, as well as its name are both references to a Fractal , a geometric repetition of a pattern. 

According to Wikipedia a fractal is a curve or geometric figure, each part of which has the same statistical character as the whole. Fractals are useful in modeling structures (such as or snowflakes) in which similar patterns at progressively smaller scales, and in describing partly random or chaotic phenomena such as crystal growth, fluid turbulence, and galaxy formation.

Like this:

When he scanns its database, its eyes turn into the Internet connection symbol for the Wii Shop Channel.                                                                                                                                                                                      

When Dimentio causes it a short-circuit, he riffs on MS-DOS and Windows 95, Windows 98, and Windows Me error messages, makes a reference to the The Legend of Zelda character Error (who stated "I AM ERROR"), and then yells "CTRL ALT DEL" (control, alt, delete).

The trackles are diminutive, robotic beings which are produced by Fracktail. Like him, they were presumably created by the Tribe of Ancients.

In Super Mario Kun (the manga of the game) Fracktail presents itself as a "god" and Mario is initially scared, until it offers him the Pure Heart after it realizes Mario is the hero of the prophecy. Dimentio arrives and glitches Fracktail, causing it to mercilessly attack Mario. Mario tries everything (such as paper-izing himself and praying to it) but nothing works. After Fracktail destroys Peach's photo, Mario's precious possession, he attacks and defeats Fracktail. Dimentio, who was enjoying the battle, disappears, promising to return. Fracktail (who does not explode like in the game) un-glitches and gives the Pure Heart to Mario, unaware of what happened.

Tattle: That's Fracktail, the robotic guardian of the Pure Heart. It's quite enormous... Max HP is ??, Attack is 1. It can fly and swoop down with its big open mouth... But I think the antenna-like horn atop its head is its weak spot... I think you're going to need to use Thoreau to hit it...

His name in Italian is Dracker , a pun on "drago" (dragon) and "hacker". But in German his name is Portmanteau of "lohe" (blaze) and "kost" (food); also a pun on "rohkost" (raw vegetables) or "locust"... Weird.

BIG BLOOPER

Its theme is an arrangement of the underwater music from Super Mario Bros. 3.

Defeating Big Blooper does not earn the player any points, and the giant squid is not killed by the encounter. If the player enters the area where the Blooper's tentacles come out of the floor and ceiling, Big Blooper can be tattled using Tippi or Tiptron.

Fun facts: In Chapter 3, it's the only chapter (besides Castle Bleck) who has a battle in each part. 

In the prelease, It was stipulated that Tippi and the discarded Pixl would fight it, here is a screenshot that confirms it:

Talking about real imbeciles...

Francis is completely invisible when in 2D, but if Mario into 3D, Francis's moving shadow is visible, making it easier to counterattack. Additionally, slamming the ground with will force Francis to appear for a brief moment.

The next time Francis appears is in the Castle Bleck chapter, Castle Bleck Foyer, though as an optional boss. This is the only time he can engage in battle against Luigi and for Tippi to use the Tattle ability on him, since Luigi and Tippi were not available in chapter 3. Partway through the chapter, a disguised Mimi asks the player what they hate most. One of the answers for the final question is "Francis", which will cause Francis to appear in the third room and another battle with him will begin. Francis had apparently been watching one of his favorite television programs before being warped into the castle, and, despite his confusion, he yearned to have Tippi back so much that he talked himself into thinking that his Reclinatron 4500 chair had manipulated his very dreams and warped him to Tippi. After his defeat, Francis runs again, claiming he would simulate the battle on his computer to see what had kept him from winning.

In the manga, when Francis kipnapped Tippi, Mario disguises as Peach, and then Francis kidnapped him. Bowser and his troops have created a little base in Bitlands and see Francis with Princess Peach, causing Bowser to go alone to rescue her. When Mario arrives at Fort Francis, the caged Tippi recognizes him, blowing his cover. Mario snatches her and tries to escape, but Francis starts fighting for his rare butterfly, ending up swallowing Mario. Barry arrives and suggest Tippi to shake the Wii Remote in order to free Mario from Francis' belly, but the two Pixls cannot shake it enough. Right on time, Bowser arrives and, still thinking that Francis swallowed Peach, shakes the Wii Remote so vigorously that he manages to free Mario, even though he gets out from Francis' wrong end. Bowser and Mario start arguing and, when Francis tries to ask what is going on, the two direct their punches against Francis, defeating him and freeing the fourth Pure Heart. Talking about shady things...

In the Japanese version, his like for anime is even more emphasized.

You can't hit what you can't see, so wait for him to reappear... But he is still there. Look at the floor and find his shadow... Yech... Just looking at him brings back bad memories...

Fun facts: In the Japanese version of the game, Francis yells "Oppose violence!" before he runs away upon defeat.

In Chapter 8, if Tippi is used to inspect the area before the optional battle takes place, Tippi will give the following tattle text: "There's something here... I have a really bad feeling about this..."

In Issue 44 of the Invincible comic series, on page 10, there is a character wearing a T-shirt that references Francis. The shirt features a chameleon in a yellow T-shirt and glasses, sweating, holding a laptop, and saying "HI-TECHNICAAAL."  (A/N): If anyone has a copy of the page, PLEASE SEND IT!!!

The green Thunder!!!

HP: 40

Attack: 3

Score: 2000

Brobot

HP: 255

Attack: 4

Deffense: 3 (6 against fire)

Score: 4000

It is the Super Paper Mario equivalent of the Magnus von Grapple robot found in Paper Mario: The Thousand-Year Door.

Brobot has the second-largest amount of HP in the game, tied with Dark Muth (only Shadoo has more health, having 400 HP in total), even more than Brobot L-type. However, this is countered by the fact that Squirps' laser rapidly delivers large amounts of damage.

Brobot appears in volume 37 of the Super Mario-Kun, in the Super Paper Mario story arc, where Luigi calls upon it after thinking about negative memories he had with Mario. The Brobot then gets defeated by the Pure Heart and the happy flowers.

In battle, Brobot fires homing missiles and straight shots at the party. The missiles can be destroyed by shooting them. Brobot also fires lasers from its eyes, but they can be dodged by flipping. It can also open its mouth and inhale to try and suck the gang in, then eat them and spit them out, doing major damage in the process.

During the battle, Choco-bars will float by. The player can get them and use them for their advantage. There are five different colors, and each color has a different effect;

Red bars will increase the player's Attack power by 1.

Yellow bars will make the player faster.

Green bars will allow the player to shoot missiles for a short time, which deal regular damage but ignore defense.

Blue bars will create a barrier that will nullify all of Brobot's damage.

Purple bars will have the player shoot two Squirps rays at once.

(A/N): I'm still missing half of the bosses and the optionals, so I'll do part 2. Have a happy day!

What do you mean by "out of nowhere"? Helob and Sozo are friends... How dare you doubt it! But okay, Helob will answer that question… he'll try to answer it right…

Let's see… If Sozo called Helob a "spider boy friend"… Helob obviously is a spider… he's a boy, not girl, without a doubt… and he's definitely Sozo's friend. So, guess, he'd just be happy that Sozo considers him a friend too! Yes, this will be Helob's answer.

Wait a minute! King Sozo will never call Helob a "boy friend"! What idiotic ideas you have!

Just look at him! Does he look like a little baby to you? NO! Helob is a full-fledged, mature and adult male! MALE! Not boy!

So Sozo would rather call him Sozo's "spider male friend"!

And Helob will say that his reaction to such a descryption of Helob would be pure joy and happiness!

------------

Neither the spiders nor the ants in this AU have a clue about the concept of "going out" or "dating" or being boyfriend/girlfriend for someone… I suspect this concept is foreign to other animals as well. You're either a friend or a fiancé, nothing in between.

Additionally, at this stage of their relationship, Sozo and Helob really only consider themselves friends. They are so innocent… X"D

.

PS. I was going to colour Helob's arms black, but it was too much effort and I decided that I wouldn't feel like it… Otherwise I would have posted this answer in about two days (I have a remote job tomorrow, so I'm not drawing Selob or anything from Cult of the Wrath tomorrow).

DeFi Tax: Understanding Tax Implications of Decentralized Finance

DeFi, or decentralized finance, is an exciting development made possible only by cryptocurrencies and decentralized economies. Providing an alternative to traditional financial institutions, De-Fi enables users to engage in financial activities such as trading, borrowing, and lending without intermediaries. By providing alternatives to banks and lenders, De-Fi stands to reshape how we perceive financial activities online.

Yet, profit has tax ramifications. Because of the complexity and number of transactions in decentralized financial systems, taxes are complicated. Users must understand DeFi taxes to prevent legal and financial issues.

How does Tax in  DeFi Work?

DeFi transactions involve cryptocurrencies, which are subject to different rules and regulations than traditional finance transactions.

The taxation implications of DeFi can vary depending on the specific activity, such as trading, staking, or liquidity provision. Additionally, the classification of DeFi tokens can affect their taxation treatment.

DeFi taxation is further complicated by the protocols that underpin these platforms, making it difficult for users to determine the taxation implications of their transactions. Those looking to devote time to De-Fi activities need to be vigilant about local laws concerning these assets.

Taxation of DeFi Transactions in the United States

DeFi transactions are subject to taxation in the United States. Here are some crucial key points to keep in mind:

DeFi trading: Capital gains taxes apply to DeFi trading profits. Short-term profits (less than one year) are taxed at regular income rates, whereas long-term gains are taxed at reduced rates.

Staking: Locking tokens for network validation earns prizes. Rewards are taxable income.

Liquidity provision: DeFi systems provide liquidity so users may earn trading fees and incentives by locking their tokens. These fees constitute taxable income.

DeFi tokens: Tokens might be securities, commodities, or property. Especially with cryptocurrencies, distinguishing the two is a problem. Following news and events is the best approach to determine each token's tax treatment.

Challenges of DeFi Taxation

DeFi taxation can be challenging due to the complexity of DeFi protocols and the need for regulatory guidance. Here are some key challenges:

Complexity of DeFi protocols: DeFi protocols frequently involve complicated transactions and smart contracts that are hard to trace for taxes. Profit and loss reporting is difficult since participants make many transactions every session.

Lack of regulatory guidance: The IRS still needs to address several issues about DeFi taxes. Regulation will expand as the industry expands.

Wrapping Up

DeFi taxation is a complex issue that requires careful consideration by users engaged in decentralized finance activities. The taxation implications of DeFi transactions vary depending on the specific activity, and the need for regulatory clarity makes it challenging for users to navigate this space.

However, there are strategies that users can employ to optimize their De-Fi taxation, such as tax loss harvesting and seeking professional advice. Moreover, using tax reporting software like Descrypt can make calculating and reporting crypto taxes more straightforward and accurate.

i was going to post this yesterday but i was Omega busy so i am doing it right now instead

if youre a fan of inscryption, ive been working on an inscryption demake project in pygame with a friend of mine called descryption that expands on the world of inscryption with things like a fifth scrybe and custom cost, over 100 new sigils and 300 new cards, full art spells, and a host of gamemodes, including an in-universe story mode

progress is at a standstill now because were both busy with life and other things but if you want to check out what weve been up to, the discord server link is https://discord.gg/TUPb3VBsAX

Writing before my sleeping brain anihilates that idea:

Deltarune npc based on search bars, who stands where doors portal are now. She has a flying/something else machine (based on search engine) and takes fun gang diffrent places like river person in Undertale, but her character is like an old person who is shocked you dont know the name of every local football team member 50 years ago. No bad intentions, just stucked in past.

And in the light world one of the computer has a descryption:

Someone left browser open at the results page for: Dear goosle [<-placeholder], could you explain where to find rob-rolks [<-misspell of some gametitle] for my grandson birthday present please? Thank you in advance.
