From: Jeremy Rubin S> To: "jeffrey E." <jeevacation(kgmail.com> Subject: Question Date: Fri, 01 Sep 2017 21:52:11 +0000 Let's say I open an IRA (regular or Roth). Then I create an LLC that I am CEO of, and sell 100% ownership to the IRA in exchange for purchase $100K in Bitcoin through it. As far as I understand, this is now a kosher Bitcoin retirement fund. But lets say the LLC spends/loses the coins. The value goes down, and my IRA is at a loss, right? But I was able to take the coins out of the LLC without taxes, right? Am I missing a step here or is this an interesting new technique? Best, Jeremy EFTA00655693
