Frequently Asked Questions about Crypto Tax Reporting

Key considerations to stay compliant with your local tax authority.

Are crypto-to-crypto swaps (e.g., BTC to ETH) taxable?↓

In most jurisdictions (Spain, US, Mexico, Colombia, etc.), exchanging one cryptocurrency for another triggers a taxable event. Capital gains or losses are calculated based on local fiat equivalent value at the precise moment of trade.

Can I offset crypto losses against gains?↓

Yes. Virtually all tax frameworks allow capital losses to be deducted from gross gains. Furthermore, if your annual total is net negative, you can usually roll over losses to offset gains over the following 4 tax years.

How can I generate an accurate official report?↓

Manual spreadsheet tracking often leads to errors due to high transaction volume and trading fees. The recommended method is connecting your exchange accounts and wallets via read-only API keys to tax software like Koinly, which automatically categorizes movements per local tax rules.
