Understanding HMRC crypto tax rules
If you own crypto, any profit from selling, trading, or spending crypto is usually subject to Capital Gains Tax, while income from staking, mining, or airdrops is taxed as income.
However, regulations are far more complex than you can imagine.
You are required to track every transaction, calculate gains using HMRC’s pooling and matching rules, and keep detailed records. Missing even one step can result in non-compliance, penalties, and unnecessary stress.
The risk of getting it wrong
Failing to follow HMRC’s rules can lead to fines, interest on unpaid tax, and even investigations.
Trying to do everything manually with spreadsheets only makes the process more complicated, as every transaction needs to be checked against HMRC’s requirements.
The fear of making mistakes or missing deadlines adds pressure, leaving many investors feeling anxious about whether they’re truly compliant with HMRC’s expectations.
