Frequently Asked Questions

How are crypto taxes calculated?

In most jurisdictions, cryptocurrency is treated as property for tax purposes. You owe capital gains tax on profits when you sell, trade, or use crypto. Short-term gains (held less than a year) are typically taxed at your ordinary income rate, while long-term gains receive preferential rates.

What fees should I include?

Include all fees associated with your trades: exchange trading fees (usually 0.1-0.5%), network/gas fees for transfers, deposit/withdrawal fees, and any spread costs. These fees reduce your overall profit.

How do I calculate profit for multiple purchases?

For multiple purchases at different prices, calculate your average cost basis by dividing total investment by total coins purchased. Then use this average price as your purchase price in the calculator.
