Could you please clarify for me, do I need to pay taxes on airdrops? I've received some cryptocurrency tokens through this mechanism and I'm a bit confused about the tax implications. Is it considered taxable income? And if so, how do I calculate the amount of tax I owe? Would it be based on the value of the tokens at the time of receipt or at some other point? It would be helpful if you could provide some guidance on this matter. Thank you in advance for your assistance.

Cryptocurrency investments often lead to capital gains, which are taxed accordingly. The calculation of these gains is straightforward, relying solely on the difference between the market value at the time of disposal and the initial market value at the point of receipt.

This taxation principle applies universally, regardless of the source of the cryptocurrency. Whether it's earned through mining, staking, or as an airdrop or bounty, the capital gains tax applies equally.
