I did this with the Shift Card way back, which was the original card for Coinbase spending. It was a massive pain in the ass to explain the transaction history. I wouldn't be surprised if Coinbase has improved upon that experience, but to what degree I'd be curious about.

I don't particularly understand why everyone's happy to gloss over tax implications being undiscussed on things like this. Whether or not it's right (I don't believe it is), the fact remains that the average new user is not aware of this quirk of Crypto.

If you understand all the gotchas you become a nocoiner and they don't want that.
