Profit = (Sale Price − Purchase Price) × Quantity − Fees
Tax = Profit × Capital Gains Rate (0/15/20% LT or ordinary rate ST)
Profit = (Sell Price × Quantity) - (Buy Price × Quantity) - Buy Fees - Sell Fees. Example: Buy 1 BTC at $30K, sell at $50K = $20K gain minus fees.
Short-term (held ≤1 year): taxed as ordinary income at 10-37%. Long-term (held >1 year): 0%, 15%, or 20%. Track holding period for every purchase.
Both buy and sell fees are deductible. Gas fees, exchange fees, and transfer fees all reduce your taxable gain. Keep records.
Use FIFO (first-in, first-out), LIFO, or specific identification. FIFO is default. Crypto tax software automates this across thousands of transactions.
No — crypto is only taxed when you sell, trade, or spend it. Holding is not a taxable event, even if value increases significantly.
