Good day, esteemed financial expert. I've been dabbling in the world of 
cryptocurrency investments, and recently, the value of my holdings has appreciated quite significantly. However, this has led me to a question that's been nagging me: Am I obligated to pay capital gains tax if I decide to sell my cryptocurrency? I understand that tax regulations vary across jurisdictions, but I'm curious if there's a general rule or guideline I should be aware of. Your insight into this matter would be greatly appreciated. Thank you in advance for your time and expertise.

    Capital Gains Tax is levied on the profits generated from selling certain assets, once they exceed the tax-free allowance.

    The tax-free allowance varies based on individual circumstances and the nature of the assets sold.
