tax question

[cardcounter0]

Can't believe the answers given here so far.

You pay taxes on your INCOME. Income is defined as funds that are under your complete control. Control over funds would be cash in your hand, a check you can take to a bank and cash, funds in an account that you can withdrawl from, assets that you could easily sell, etc.

Since your funds are locked up, you don't have control over them. There is a question about if you will ever get them. Until your account is unlocked and you are able to freely withdrawl -- It isn't income -- You don't owe taxes -- Yet.
