Unless you keep your BTC in the cryptocurrency universe forever, never using exchanges or other off ramps, you will be forced to comply with KYC laws.
Then there are the new self-reporting laws. Read the article cited︀ in post 21. For the first time (this year), the U.S. government is now asking︁ every U.S. taxpayer about crypto holdings, under penalty of perjury.
So, if you wish to︂ become a criminal, you may get away without reporting your crypto holdings for a while,︃ but technology will eventually catch up with you.
The U.S. and the EU literally employee︄ rocket scientists who sit around all day thinking about this stuff. They will soon use︅ supercomputers and AI to do what was previously hard work, i.e., identifying tax scofflaws.
