Crypto Taxes
“How do I treat airdropped crypto for tax purposes?”
Airdropped crypto often raises tax questions because the timing of when the tokens become accessible, whether there was any action required to receive them, and the fair market value at that point can all affect the reporting treatment. In many cases, the answer also depends on whether the airdrop was tied to a hard fork, a marketing promotion, or an exchange platform distribution, since those facts can change how the receipt is viewed. Recordkeeping matters as well, especially the date received, the wallet involved, and any later sale or transfer, because those details typically drive the follow-up tax reporting. A targeted review with a CPA can turn the uncertainty into a clear next step.
