Cryptocurrencies and their volatility:
Cryptocurrencies are known for their extreme volatility, which means that their value can fluctuate significantly within a short period of time. These fluctuations can be attributed to a number of factors, including market speculation, regulatory changes and technological developments. While some investors see this volatility as an opportunity for potential gains, it also poses significant risks, especially for those with little experience trading digital currencies.
Tax aspects of cryptocurrencies:
In Switzerland, cryptocurrencies must be declared in the tax return as they are considered assets. The value of cryptocurrencies is usually converted into Swiss francs at the end of the year and reported in the relevant part of the tax return. Profits from trading cryptocurrencies can be considered capital gains and must also be taxed.
However, the tax treatment of cryptocurrencies may vary depending on the canton and individual circumstances. Therefore, it is important to learn about the specific tax requirements in your area.
