FAQ
A taxable event refers to any type of crypto-currency transaction that results in a capital gain (or profit). This includes trading crypto, buying crypto with crypto, selling crypto for fiat, and buying items or paying for services rendered with crypto.
The cost basis of a coin is its original value, including the purchase price and any fees charged by the exchange. For example, if you bought 1 BTC for $6,500 and were charged a $100 fee, your cost basis would be $6,600.
Yes, the rates at which you pay capital gain taxes depend on your country’s tax laws. Long-term gains are realized on assets held for more than 1 year, while short-term gains are realized on assets held for less than 1 year.
Yes, it’s important to report any occurrence of a taxable event, even if the event resulted in a loss. Failing to report gains for which you are required to pay taxes can be considered tax fraud.
Earning crypto-currencies for services rendered is typically viewed as payment-in-kind. You are taxed as if you had been given the equivalent amount of your country's own currency. For example, if you received $1000 worth of Bitcoins as part of your salary, you are taxed like you had just received $1000.
To calculate capital gains, you need to know the value of the services rendered. For example, if you paid .01 BTC (cost basis $50) for a lawn cutting service that charges $100, you’ve realized a gain of $50, which you must pay capital gains taxes on.
You can typically find more information about the specifics of your country’s taxation rulings on official government websites. For example, IRS.GOV for United States taxation information. Additionally, the Library of Congress provides a wealth of information regarding crypto-currency taxation around the world.
