Blockpit x Bitpanda: End of year – last chance to optimize your taxes!

There is nothing certain but death and taxes. Benjamin Franklin who coined this quip did not own crypto assets and couldn’t know that every crypto sale is different. Some are taxable and some are not. Did you own it for longer than a year? Some jurisdictions allow reduced tax rates for long-term holders or even tax-free gains.

You can use this to your advantage. You made a deal by last year by selling Polkadot, but your Shiba Inu is a huge loss. If you are taxable in Germany, you can get rid of the dog coin and offset these losses with the gains from Polka.

The tax rule is fair. You incur taxes with gains, but you can reduce them with losses. What sounds pretty simple in theory can be quite cumbersome in practice. You’d need to remember all your trades, calculate the holding period, the taxable gains, and the offsetting losses. We tried and found it impossible.

Based on this experience, we built the Tax Optimization feature for our crypto tax calculator. The feature shows on a single, simple page how you can optimize your crypto taxes. You will find it as the last menu item in our crypto tax tool.

Optimize taxes in Austria

In Austria, you can offset losses with gains from the same tax year. Since the 2022 tax reform, it is possible to apply stock gains and other capital market gains to offset your crypto losses.  Read more about this in our detailed guide: Crypto Tax Austria

Optimize taxes in Germany

If you sold digital assets at a loss in Germany in 2022 and made gains in the previous year 2021, for which you would now have to pay taxes, you can deduct this year's losses from last year's gains. Read more about this in our detailed Tax Guide for Germany.

Optimize taxes in Spain

In Spain, you can offset losses with gains from the same tax year. So if losses exceed the amount of gains in the same year, you can finish offsetting them in the following four tax years. If the amount of your capital losses exceeds the amount of your capital gains, you can continue to offset them with a maximum of 25% of your gains from movable capital.

Optimize taxes in France

In France, you can set off the losses with the gains of the same fiscal year and only with the gains from assets of the same nature (digital assets in our case).
