MARKET ANALYSIS CALCULATION
Two methods to estimate market size
1. Merchant payment processing feesMerchants pay $48B in fees per year for payment-card use1. Assuming that blockchain-based technology takes 2%-5% of that market, it will be a potential market of $960M-$2.4B (€850M-€2.1B). Coyno’s tools will allow a merchant to replace the payment service provider by using Bitcoin on his own infrastructure.
2. Merchants using BitcoinAround 82,000 businesses now use Bitcoin2. With 8-10% avg. monthly growth in number of businesses accepting BTC3, the potential market will be around 3.3M-8M businesses in 2019. Assuming they spend an avg. of €240/year on payment-related bookkeeping software, potential market size is around €790M-€1.9B (payment processing fees not considered).

EXAMPLES OF BITCOIN TAX EVENTS
User action... … leads to tax event
Customer pays merchant 10$ worth of BTC Merchant buys 10$ worth of BTC from customer
Merchant sells 20$ worth of BTC for fiat Merchant sells 20$ worth of BTC and possibly realises gain from investment in BTC
Merchant buys 20$ worth of goods with BTC Merchant sells 20$ worth of BTC to other merchant and possibly realises gain from investment in BTC
As can be seen, the relevant tax event is not a straight-forward calculation as with fiat currency.
Different jurisdictions require different approaches and techniques for bookkeeping and tax reporting.
