Tax Classification (US)
Usually, shorter holding periods may be taxed as short-term gains, longer as long-term — but final treatment depends on US tax law and your full situation.
This result is a simplified estimate based only on the numbers you entered. Actual taxable gains in the United States can depend on many additional factors, such as other crypto transactions, staking rewards, airdrops, wash sale rules, and state-level regulations. Please use this as a starting point — not a final tax calculation.
Quick FAQ: Using This Crypto Tax & Profit Calculator
How is profit or loss calculated?
We multiply your buy price by quantity, adjust for buy fees, then do the same on the sell side. The difference between total sell value and total buy cost becomes your estimated profit (positive) or loss (negative), plus a simple percentage return.
What is the difference between short-term and long-term gains?
In many US scenarios, gains on crypto held for a shorter period may be treated like regular income (short-term), while assets held longer can be eligible for long-term capital gains rates. The exact thresholds and rules can change, so always confirm with official IRS guidance or a tax professional.
