FAQ

Frequently Asked Questions About Crypto Profit

Find answers to common questions about calculating cryptocurrency profits:

How do I calculate crypto profit?

Crypto profit is calculated by subtracting the total cost basis (buy price × tokens + fees) from the total sell value (sell price × tokens). Subtract additional fees and other costs to get net profit.

What is cost basis in crypto?

Cost basis is the original value of an asset for tax purposes. It includes the purchase price plus any fees paid to acquire the crypto. Cost basis is used to calculate capital gains or losses when you sell.

How is crypto taxed?

In most countries, crypto is taxed as capital gains. Short-term gains (held under 1 year) are taxed as ordinary income. Long-term gains (held over 1 year) receive preferential tax rates, typically 0-20%.

Do I need to report small crypto trades?

Yes, in most jurisdictions every crypto trade is a taxable event, even small ones. Some countries have de minimis exemptions, but these vary widely.

Annualized return converts your total return to a yearly rate for easy comparison. It's calculated using the holding period to normalize returns across different timeframes.
