Common Complex Questions

How do I calculate the cost basis for crypto I received from an airdrop? ▼
Generally, the IRS treats airdropped tokens as ordinary income based on their fair market value at the time you have dominion and control. This value becomes your cost basis for future capital gains calculations.
As a non-US resident, do I pay US capital gains tax if I trade on a US-based exchange? ▼
Usually, non-resident aliens are not subject to U.S. capital gains tax on personal property like crypto, provided they spend less than 183 days in the U.S. However, reporting requirements and dividend-equivalent rules may still apply.
What's the best way to give my executor access to my crypto wallet safely? ▼
Methods discussed in the forum include using multi-sig wallets, dead man's switches, or secure physical vaults with instructions held by legal counsel. Community members discuss the legal validity of these methods in New York probate.
