Crypto Tax Basics: What Coinmetro Users Need to Know
Coinmetro serves traders across Europe. As an EU-regulated exchange, it operates within a framework of growing tax transparency requirements. The core principles below apply broadly β but always verify the specifics with your local tax authority or a qualified tax advisor.
Every disposal is a taxable event
In most EU countries, selling, swapping, or otherwise disposing of cryptocurrency triggers capital gains tax. The gain or loss equals the difference between your proceeds and your cost basis (what you originally paid, including fees). Tracking cost basis accurately across all your Coinmetro trades is essential for a correct tax report.
DAC8 and EU reporting requirements
Coinmetro is an Estonian-licensed CASP subject to the EU DAC8 directive. Under DAC8, EU crypto platforms are required to report user transaction data β including trade amounts and proceeds β to national tax authorities. This means your Coinmetro trading activity will be increasingly visible to your country's tax office, regardless of whether you file a tax return. Ensuring your declared income matches what Coinmetro reports is critical.
Income from staking and rewards
Staking rewards, referral bonuses, and similar income from your Coinmetro account are typically treated as taxable income in the year received. The applicable tax rate depends on your country β some jurisdictions treat this as income tax, others as capital gains. CoinTracking automatically categorises these events in your tax report.

How to Calculate Your Coinmetro Taxes
Even casual traders on Coinmetro can accumulate dozens or hundreds of taxable events per year. Calculating cost basis, holding periods, and gains for each trade β across multiple assets β quickly becomes impractical without dedicated software.

The result is a jurisdiction-specific tax report β PDF or Excel β that your accountant or tax authority will accept, with a full audit trail for every transaction.
