Crypto gain refers to the profit realized from selling cryptocurrency at a price higher than the purchase price. Just like stocks, you calculate gain by subtracting your cost basis from your proceeds.
Cryptocurrency markets are known for extreme volatility — gains of 100%+ and losses of 50%+ can happen in weeks. This makes tracking your actual profit and ROI essential for smart portfolio management.

The leading smart contract platform. ETH has historically outperformed BTC in bull markets with higher volatility. DeFi and NFT activity drive additional value.
Smaller cryptocurrencies can offer massive gains but carry higher risk. Some altcoins have returned 10,000%+, while many others have gone to zero.
Selling crypto, trading one crypto for another, and spending crypto are all taxable events. Simply holding (HODLing) is not taxed until you sell.
Short-term (held <1yr): taxed as income (10-37%). Long-term (held 1+yr): taxed at 0%, 15%, or 20%. The holding period can save you thousands in taxes.
Multiple purchases at different prices create different cost bases. Methods include FIFO, LIFO, and Specific Identification. Use crypto tax software for complex portfolios.
Staking rewards, lending income, and airdrop tokens are all considered taxable income at the fair market value when received. Track everything carefully.

1 BTC bought at $20,000, sold at $67,000.
10 ETH bought at $1,200, sold at $3,500.
5,000 coins at $0.50, sold at $2.30.
0.25 BTC at $45K peak, sold at $30K.
Profit = (Sell Price − Buy Price) × Quantity. If you bought 0.5 BTC at $28,000 and sold at $67,000, your profit is ($67,000 − $28,000) × 0.5 = $19,500.
Yes. In most countries, crypto gains are taxable. In the U.S., they're treated as capital gains. Short-term holdings (<1 year) are taxed at your income tax rate; long-term holdings (1+ years) qualify for lower capital gains rates.
Crypto is infinitely divisible. You can buy 0.001 BTC or 0.00001 ETH. This calculator handles any decimal amount. The math works the same regardless of whether you own full coins or fractions.
Yes. Swapping BTC for ETH (or any crypto-to-crypto trade) is a taxable event. It's treated as if you sold the first crypto at fair market value and used the proceeds to buy the second one.
Extremely volatile. Bitcoin has historically seen 80%+ drawdowns in bear markets and 300-1000%+ gains in bull markets. Altcoins are even more volatile. Only invest what you can afford to lose.
