The tax liability arises from the difference between the selling price and the original purchase price of the cryptocurrency. For instance, if Liam buys BTC for $5,000 and later sells it for $10,000, he would owe capital gains tax on the $5,000 profit.

BTCC's spot trading platform allows users to buy and sell cryptocurrencies at current market prices. The futures trading platform, on the other hand, enables users to speculate on the future prices of cryptocurrencies and hedge against potential losses.

Capital gains tax is the most common form of taxation applied to cryptocurrency transactions. This applies when you sell or gift your cryptocurrency, trade it for another type of cryptocurrency, or use it to make a purchase.
