BSDEX and Your Tax Obligations
BSDEX (Börse Stuttgart Digital Exchange) is a BaFin-regulated German crypto exchange, wholly owned by the Börse Stuttgart Group — one of Europe's largest stock exchange operators. It offers spot trading in Bitcoin, Ethereum and other major crypto assets, and is one of the few exchanges in Germany operating under full BaFin supervision.
Unlike many international exchanges, BSDEX does not offer an API for tax software. Your full transaction history must be exported as a CSV file from your Account & Tax settings and uploaded to CoinTracking.
CoinTracking supports BSDEX via CSV file upload:
- BSDEX Transaction History CSV: downloaded from your BSDEX account → Settings → Account & Tax tab → Download CSV
- All crypto buy, sell, deposit and withdrawal transactions are supported
- CoinTracking maps BSDEX CSV columns automatically
- Note: timestamps for deposits and withdrawals may need manual verification due to BSDEX file format limitations
Crypto Tax Basics: What BSDEX Users Need to Know
BSDEX is a German exchange operating under BaFin regulation — which means your trading data is subject to strict reporting requirements. Here are the core tax principles for BSDEX users across key jurisdictions.
Trading crypto is a taxable disposal
In most countries, every sale, swap or use of crypto is a taxable event. Capital gains tax applies to the difference between what you paid (cost basis) and what you received. Transfers between your own wallets do not trigger tax.
Germany's one-year holding period rule
German users trading on BSDEX benefit from a tax exemption if crypto is held for more than one year. Under § 23 EStG, gains from assets held longer than 12 months are completely tax-free. A €1,000 annual tax-free threshold also applies for short-term gains. CoinTracking tracks holding periods automatically for every BSDEX transaction.
Records are your responsibility
BSDEX operates under BaFin regulation and does not issue formal tax documents. The CSV transaction history is a raw data export — not a tax report. Accurate records of every trade, date, cost and proceeds remain your responsibility. CoinTracking maintains a complete, dated audit trail of every BSDEX transaction you import.

Are BSDEX Transactions Taxable?
In most jurisdictions, crypto is treated as an asset: disposing of it can trigger capital gains tax. Use this as a starting reference — the exact rules vary by country.
Taxable Events

- Swapping crypto for crypto
- Using crypto to pay for goods or services
- Receiving crypto as income or staking reward
Not Taxable
- Buying and holding crypto
- Transferring crypto between your own wallets

- Selling crypto held for more than 1 year (Germany)
Tax treatment varies by country. CoinTracking applies the rules for your selected jurisdiction automatically.
How to Calculate Your BSDEX Taxes
BSDEX's transaction history CSV contains all raw transaction data — but converting that into an accurate tax report requires calculating cost basis, holding periods and gains for every transaction.
The core calculation is straightforward: take what you received (proceeds), subtract what you paid (cost basis, calculated with FIFO), and the result is your taxable gain or loss. For German users, holding periods must also be tracked for every individual lot.
CoinTracking automates this across your full BSDEX history and produces a report your accountant or local tax authority will accept — including Anlage SO for German users.

BSDEX does not generate a ready-to-file tax report. It provides a CSV transaction history file (transactionhistory-[year].csv) downloadable from your Account & Tax settings. Converting this raw data into a jurisdiction-specific tax report is your responsibility. CoinTracking imports your BSDEX CSV and generates a complete, compliant report for your country.
Log into your BSDEX account at bsdex.de, click the initials of your name in the upper right corner, go to Settings → Account & Tax tab.

Your BSDEX trading history is increasingly visible to tax authorities.
Yes. Under German tax law (§ 23 EStG), gains from crypto disposals are taxable if you held the asset for less than one year. If you held for more than one year, gains are tax-free. A tax-free threshold of €1,000 per year applies — if your gains stay below that, no tax is owed. CoinTracking calculates holding periods and gains automatically using FIFO.
Yes. In most jurisdictions, including Germany, realised losses from crypto disposals can be offset against gains in the same tax year. In Germany, losses from § 23 EStG transactions can only be offset against gains from the same category — not against other income. CoinTracking calculates and reports both gains and losses automatically from your BSDEX CSV export.
