Tax-loss Harvesting

The last few quarters have been up and down for many in cryptocurrency. Did you buy crypto at the wrong time and now you’re looking at a loss? Make it work for you when tax time comes. Tax-loss harvesting is the process of selling a cryptocurrency that has experienced a loss to realize that loss. By “harvesting” the loss, investors can offset taxes on both gains and income. The sold cryptocurrency can then be replaced in the portfolio in order to maintain an optimal asset allocation and expected returns.

All BitPay Wallet users that sign up with ZenLedger will have access to ZenLedger’s tax-loss harvesting tool. Read ZenLedger’s guide to tax-loss harvesting to learn more and get started.
