Worked example

How the tax adds up.

A typical Giottus sale, run through your country’s rules. Illustrative figures: HashBooks calculates the real ones from your records.

Sell 1 ETH bought 14 months earlier

Illustrative · United States

Sell 1 ETH bought 14 months earlier, line by line
Proceeds$3,500
Cost basis (FIFO)−$2,000
Long-term gain$1,500
Tax at the 15% long-term rate$225

Held a year or less, the same gain would be taxed at your ordinary rate, for example 22%: $330. The full example in the help centre.

Remaining £6,730 × 24%£1,615.20

Your salary decides how much of the gain falls in the 18% band. The full example in the help centre.

Good to know

Giottus specifics.

  • Giottus has no public API for personal accounts that HashBooks can connect to. A file upload gives HashBooks the same history without it.
  • The API secret is shown only once at key creation. A lost secret means a new key is needed.
  • If an IP whitelist is set, calls from other IP addresses fail with IP_NOT_ALLOWED.
  • Calls without the needed permission fail with error -2003.
