The way to avoid that would be to keep 100% of your Bitcoins in an offline wallet. If they can't touch it, they can't take it.

yup, the thing is, if they found a huge cache of cocaine, they are not going to sell it for cash to settle a tax bill. if they think bitcoins are just as stinky, they won't sell em, hell, they might not even let you sell them for cash to pay a tax bill right?
