What people use it for
Humanity Protocol in practice.
Humanity Protocol is a chain for privacy-preserving proof-of-humanity and identity credentials that apps can verify without holding user data.
- Swaps and transfers across the apps on the chain
- Bridging in and out from Ethereum and other networks
- Gas paid on every transaction

Good to know
Humanity Protocol specifics.
- One 0x address works across EVM networks, Humanity Protocol included, but each network records its own transactions. Add your address once more for Humanity Protocol.
- Humanity Protocol is an Ethereum layer 2. Bridging ETH or tokens from Ethereum moves your own assets, so HashBooks records it as a transfer with the original cost carried over, not a sale.
How to connect
Bring Humanity Protocol in.
It takes a couple of minutes. Stuck? See connecting accounts in the help centre.
- Copy your public Humanity Protocol address (starts with 0x) — never your seed phrase or private key.
- In HashBooks, add a wallet and paste the address.
- HashBooks reads the full on-chain history for that address and classifies every transfer.
Worked example
One example, line by line.
A typical move onto Humanity Protocol, with the tax shown for the country you picked. The numbers are for illustration only; yours come from your own history.
Illustrative · United States
| Bridge 1 ETH from Ethereum (cost $2,000) | Not a sale |
|---|---|
| Swap the ETH for tokens worth | $2,600 |
| Cost basis carried over the bridge | −$2,000 |
| Gain on the swap | $600 |
| Gas paid in ETH, added to cost | −$4 |
| Reported gain | $596 |
The bridge keeps your original cost; the swap is the taxable event. The full example in the help centre.

Questions
Humanity Protocol, answered.
Is bridging to Humanity Protocol taxable?
Moving your own crypto to Humanity Protocol through a bridge is generally not a sale, because you still own it. Watch for bridges that swap the token on the way: receiving a different asset can be a disposal. HashBooks matches the two sides when both addresses are connected.
Are Humanity Protocol gas fees tax deductible?
It depends on your country. In the US and UK a fee paid on a trade usually becomes part of its cost or reduces proceeds; in India only the cost of acquisition is deductible. HashBooks applies the rule for the country you file in.
Which HashBooks plan do I need for Humanity Protocol?
Connecting Humanity Protocol and seeing an estimated tax summary is free for up to 100 transactions across 3 connections. Filing reports for your country start on the Starter plan; see pricing.
Can HashBooks move anything from my Humanity Protocol address?
No. A public address shows history but can’t sign anything, and HashBooks never asks for a recovery phrase or private key. It reads; it can’t trade, withdraw or transfer.
