How to Do Your Crypto Taxes with Koinly

DeFi activity can create taxable events in many countries. The good news, you don’t need a special integration or hours of manual work to get your taxes done. Koinly can read your onchain activity, including all your swaps, bridges, LPs, staking, and more, directly from your wallets and compile everything into a detailed report.

Do Taxes Apply to Swaps & Bridges?

Pulling off profitable swaps or bridging for better yields? Usually, the tax office wants to know. In most countries, crypto is taxable, and that includes DeFi activity like swapping, staking, yield farming, or providing liquidity. Guidance for DeFi is still evolving, but tools like Koinly classify onchain transactions from your connected wallets to help you file accurately.


Koinly Handles DeFi Like a Pro

Koinly

supports over 1.5 million crypto investors in more than 20 countries. It integrates with over 950 platforms, pulling in your DEX, CEX, wallet, and blockchain transactions in seconds. Koinly spots swaps, staking rewards, liquidity pool tokens, and more, then calculates gains and income so you can focus on trading instead of drowning in spreadsheets.


Possible DeFi Tax Implications

Most countries have not released specific DeFi tax rules yet, but tax regulation likely applies to the following events:

  • Earning new tokens (from staking, yield farming, play-to-earn, etc.)
  • Profits from selling, swapping, or spending crypto
  • Profits from adding or removing liquidity
  • Profits from margin trading or options protocols

Tax rules vary by country. Koinly has

guides for most countries on their blog
