KEEP THE OVERVIEW WITH OUR GUIDE

You’re responsible for reporting any ethereum trades and other cryptocurrency trades to Skat - but it doesn’t have to be difficult. On the contrary, you can handle your taxes fast and with ease with help from our guide. We’ll send you an overview of all your crypto-trades by the end of the year, when it’s time to report your taxes. The guide gives you step-by-step guidance on how to file your trades – meaning any realised losses or gains– to Skat.

Be aware that losses and gains – and large fluctuations – are some of the risks connected to crypto investments.

When you trade ethereum for instance, you have the opportunity to yield large gains in a short amount of time – but you could also risk losing the entire amount just as quickly. We do not counsel on buying or selling and all decisions are yours to make.

ETHEREUM: PERSONAL INCOME IN CASE OF GAINS - DEDUCTIBLE EXPENSE IN CASE OF LOSSES

When you earn money by selling cryptocurrency, you need to pay taxes on gains. The tax rate is the same as you would pay for personal income - so 37-52% depending on your tax bracket.

Due to the current taxation laws for ethereum and other cryptocurrencies, you cannot deduct losses from any gains, when you lose money on selling cryptocurrency. Here, you will get a deductible expense, corresponding to a tax value of about 25%. 

This means that you will be taxed with 37-52% in case of any gains, while you will get 25% in deductible expenses in case of any losses. If you were to earn 1,000 on ethereum, and you pay 37% in taxes, you would have to pay 370 DKK in taxes. And if you’ve lost 1,000 DKK on ethereum in the same year, you would “get” 250 DKK back.

An overall result of -120 DKK, even if you’ve technically broken even. This is called asynchronous taxation, which you can read more about here .

Cryptocurrencies can rise and fall

When you trade cryptocurrencies, you need to be aware that it carries a large risk. The value of your cryptocurrency can both rise and fall, and you can risk losing the entire amount you’ve invested in cryptocurrencies.

That’s a lot of people, who have a hard time understanding taxation laws surrounding cryptocurrencies. With Lunar Block, you’ll get a document containing all your crypto trades sent to you every year. Here, you can see how much you’ve earned, and how much you’ve lost.
