FAQ
How is crypto profit calculated?
Profit = (sell price − buy price) × quantity, minus fees on both the buy and the sell. This calculator applies your chosen exchange’s instant-buy fee (plus verified spread where we have it) on both sides — the costs most calculators quietly ignore.
What is the 12-month CGT discount?
Australian individuals who hold a CGT asset for more than 12 months before disposing of it are generally eligible to discount the capital gain by 50% when calculating tax. This calculator flags eligibility based on your purchase date — the tax itself depends on your income and circumstances.
Does this tell me my tax bill?
No — it shows your gross profit and whether the CGT discount may apply. Your actual tax depends on your marginal rate, other gains and losses, and cost-base rules. Crypto tax software calculates this properly across your whole history.
