Frequently Asked Questions
Crypto is taxed as property. Selling, trading, or spending crypto triggers a taxable event. Gains are short-term (ordinary income rates) if held under 1 year, or long-term (0/15/20%) if held over 1 year. Simply holding or transferring between your own wallets is not taxable.
FIFO (First In First Out) is the default. LIFO (Last In First Out) may reduce taxes in rising markets. HIFO (Highest In First Out) minimizes gains by selling highest-cost lots first. Choose the method that results in the lowest tax for your situation.
Trading one cryptocurrency for another (e.g., BTC to ETH) is a taxable event. You must calculate the gain/loss based on the fair market value at the time of the trade, using USD as the reference.
