Tax consulting and support for cryptocurrencies
Anyone who owns cryptocurrencies such as Bitcoin, Ethereum, or Cardano (ADA), etc., is also required to pay taxes on them.
In principle, cryptocurrencies are classified as assets and are declared in the securities and assets register. As such, they are subject to wealth tax. However, there is also the possibility that they fall under income tax (mining, staking rewards, lending rewards, yield farming, etc.).
To make the taxation of cryptocurrencies easier for you, we are happy to take care of this task on your behalf. We declare your cryptocurrencies correctly, help you avoid incorrect entries, and can thereby also reduce your tax burden.

Taxing cryptocurrencies correctly – the FAQ
So that you know exactly what to expect, we have compiled the most important questions about the taxation of cryptocurrencies – based on the concerns we receive daily from companies and private individuals in Zurich and throughout Switzerland.
What is a cryptocurrency?
A cryptocurrency is a purely digital currency. Physical banknotes or coins do not exist. Alternative terms include cyber currency or crypto money.
The main difference between a cryptocurrency and conventional means of payment is that digital currencies are not controlled or issued by a government or central bank. Instead, they are decentralized and organized by private individuals, legal entities, or third parties who hold units of the respective cryptocurrency.
What is a blockchain?
For cryptocurrencies to function, all transactions must be encrypted, verified, and stored. The capacity of a conventional database is not sufficient for this. In addition, traditional databases are susceptible to manipulation.
To provide sufficient computing power and maximum security for complex digital currencies, cryptocurrencies require a decentralized database. This means that the same database state is distributed across multiple computers, making hacking significantly more difficult than with a centralized database. In this decentralized database, all transactions are permanently and transparently stored in data blocks.
Once a data block is full, a new block is added. This block contains information referring to the previous block. Over time, these data sets form a chain of many individual blocks – this is how the blockchain is created.
How are cryptocurrencies taxed?
In principle, cryptocurrencies in the form of payment tokens are classified as assets and are declared in the securities and assets register. As such, they are subject to wealth tax. They must be declared at the end of the tax period (generally December 31) at their market value.
However, cryptocurrencies may also fall under income tax. This includes income from cryptocurrencies such as mining, staking, lending, or operating masternodes.
Since common wallets and crypto exchanges rarely (if ever) provide tax documents for income and asset positions that can be used directly for tax returns, it is recommended to keep your own transparent and traceable records, which can then be attached to the tax return.
Capital gains are generally tax-free (tax-free capital gains).
For commercial trading, commercial mining (proof-of-work), commercial operation of staking pools (proof-of-stake), or similar activities, this can result in taxable income from self-employed activity even for natural persons.
