Drugs are illegal. Bitcoin is not. As long as Bitcoin remains legal, I don't see why they would be treated any different than stocks you may own, or even a private coin collection they find out about. These tax goons are ruthless. That said, if someone is worried about it, keep them in an offline wallet and don't let anyone know you have them.
