Good to know
Settlus specifics.
- Your Settlus address is the same 0x address you use on Ethereum and other EVM networks, but Settlus keeps its own history: add the address for Settlus to bring that history in.
- Settlus 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.
- Settlus uses ETH, the native token of the Ethereum network, as its gas token.
- Settlus operates as an Ethereum Layer-2 rollup built on the OP Stack.
- Blockscout is the primary block explorer for Settlus.
From Settlus’s own pages: docs.settlus.org, docs.settlus.org. Checked October 2026.
How to connect

It takes a couple of minutes. Stuck? See connecting accounts in the help centre.
- Copy your public Settlus 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.

Questions
Settlus, answered.
Is bridging to Settlus taxable?
Moving your own crypto to Settlus 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 Settlus 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 Settlus?
Connecting Settlus 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 Settlus 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.
