Crypto Tax Calculator

Tax treatment varies by country, holding period and transaction type. Use this calculator for planning only and confirm the rules with a qualified tax professional.

A crypto tax estimate starts with your sale proceeds and subtracts the cost basis of the coins you sold. Trading fees can also reduce the taxable gain. This calculator then applies the tax rate you enter to produce an educational estimate.

The result is not a tax return. Crypto tax rules vary by country, state, holding period, income type and whether the transaction was a sale, swap, payment or reward. Keep complete transaction records and confirm your filing obligations with a qualified professional.

Cost basis is what you paid for the asset, adjusted for eligible fees. Proceeds are what you received when you sold it. The difference is generally called a capital gain or loss, although local rules can differ.

Short term and long term gains may be taxed differently in some jurisdictions. Staking rewards, mining income, airdrops and crypto received for work may follow different rules from an investment sale.

Use records from every wallet and exchange, include transaction fees, separate investment gains from income and update the estimate when your tax rate or filing status changes. The more complete your cost basis, the more useful the result will be.

• Save trade confirmations and wallet transfer records.
• Do not treat a transfer between wallets as a sale without checking the applicable rules.
• Compare the estimate with your country or state tax guidance before filing.
