๐ How Crypto Taxes Work (2025)
Short-Term vs Long-Term
If you hold crypto for 1 year or less, gains are taxed as ordinary income (10%โ37%). Hold longer than 1 year and you qualify for long-term capital gains rates of 0%, 15%, or 20%.
Cost Basis Methods
FIFO is the IRS default. HIFO minimizes taxes by selling your most expensive lots first โ reducing gains (or increasing losses). You must make this election per-exchange.
What's a Taxable Event?
Selling crypto, trading one coin for another, and using crypto to pay for goods/services are all taxable. Buying crypto is NOT a taxable event โ only selling or trading triggers taxes.
Tax Loss Harvesting
You can deduct up to $3,000 in net capital losses against ordinary income per year. Excess losses carry forward. Crypto has no wash-sale rule โ unlike stocks.
