No, since you didn’t make any money and were not taxed. Also, the bond issuer is now in bankruptcy and/or being sued into bankruptcy. I might even get back the principle depending on the output of the legal proceedings.
It depends on the details of the implementation. There are many possible solutions.
If we change it so the rule is like “if you use stock as collateral to get a loan, that is income and taxed as such” then no. You might just default on your loan, but that’s kind of on you and the bank for using a volatile asset as collateral.
Taxes are not injustice. And being unsympathetic to the risks that the owning class has to endure is not …“hatred”. More money, more problems, cry me a river.
What happens when my socks value decreases 30% one month? Do I get a tax refund?
What happens when someone fails to pay back their bond? Do I get a tax refund?

Got some bad socks there brother
Lol! Ya got me! Yeah, autocorrect is a bitch, and I failed to verify the text. Socks = stocks. (And it tried to change it to sticks that time).

I appreciate that you took the question seriously and offered a useful response.
What happens to the property taxes you paid when your property value tanks? Do you get a tax refund then? No? Then no.
Ah, yes. It’s the old “one injustice makes a new one okay” argument. Hate much?
