In the crypto space, Non-Fungible Tokens(NFTs) have been the talk of the town in 2021. While many individuals, including traders, artists, and collectors, are profiting greatly from their NFT investments, they often overlook the potential tax consequences. The taxation of NFTs can vary, ranging from regular income to capital gains to tax exemption, depending on the specifics of the NFT and the nature of its usage, considering the NFT’s multifaceted applications.
But, you don’t have to worry, because:
ZenLedger Is Now Offering Native ERC-721 NFT Tax Support!
Simply enter a public receiving address and we will pull in your NFT activity from Mints, ETH-NFT trades, and any income from NFTs.
Here’s how it works:
First, you can easily see your transactions by importing your wallet through our native integrations.
Capital gains taxes are typically levied on profits from cryptocurrency trades, however, NFT transactions defy this norm. As NFTs can sometimes be considered collectibles, they can attract a higher capital gains tax rate. In exceptional cases, NFTs may be considered as inventories and thus be taxed at income tax rates. ZenLedger accurately determines the transaction type and calculates the corresponding tax liability.
