How Cryptocurrency Taxes Work
Cryptocurrencies like bitcoin are treated as property by many governments around the worldâincluding the U.S. Other forms of property that you may be familiar with include stocks, bonds, and real-estate.
Just like these other forms of property, cryptocurrencies are subject to capital gains and losses rules, and you need to report your gains, losses, and income generated from your crypto investments on your taxes.
To do your cryptocurrency taxes, you need to calculate your gains, losses, and income from your cryptocurrency investments in your home fiat currency (e.g. USÂ Dollar, Australian Dollar, etc.).
Once you have your calculations, you can fill out the necessary tax forms required by your country. If you are in the United States, you can learn which forms you need to fill out with our blog post: How to Report Cryptocurrency On Your Taxes.
Why Can't Coinbase Wallet Generate My Tax Forms?
Many cryptocurrency investors use additional exchanges, wallets, and platforms outside of Coinbase Wallet. Perhaps you also trade on Coinbase or earn interest from BlockFi. The trouble with Coinbase Wallet's reporting is that it only extends as far as the Coinbase Wallet platform. If you use additional cryptocurrency wallets, exchanges, DeFi protocols, or other platforms outside of Coinbase Wallet, Coinbase Wallet can't provide complete gains, losses, and income tax information.
How Does Cryptocurrency Tax Software Help?
By integrating with all of your cryptocurrency platforms and consolidating your crypto data, CoinLedgerâs cryptocurrency tax software and crypto portfolio tracker are able to track your profits, losses, income, and generate accurate tax reports in a matter of minutes.
You can test out the software and generate a preview of your gains and losses completely for free by creating an account.
In this guide, weâll break down everything you need to know about Coinbase Wallet taxes and share a simple method for reporting your Coinbase Wallet transactions to the IRS in minutes.Â

What is Coinbase Wallet?Â
Coinbase Wallet is a self-custody wallet developed by Coinbase. Coinbase Wallet gives users control over their private keys, allowing them to safely store, transfer, and transact with cryptocurrency and NFTs.Â
Coinbase Wallet is currently available as a mobile app and a browser extension.Â
Is Coinbase Wallet taxable?Â
Coinbase Wallet transactions are subject to capital gains and ordinary income tax, just like all other cryptocurrency transactions.Â
Capital gains tax: When you dispose of cryptocurrency, youâll incur a capital gain or loss depending on how the price of your crypto has changed since you originally received it. Examples of disposals include selling your cryptocurrency or trading it for another cryptocurrency.Â
Ordinary income tax: Earned cryptocurrency is considered income at the time of receipt and is taxed as ordinary income. Examples of income events include receiving staking and mining rewards.Â
If youâve traded NFTs on your Coinbase Wallet, youâve likely incurred a taxable event. Buying NFTs with cryptocurrencies and selling NFTs are both subject to capital gains tax.Â
At this time, Coinbase does not issue 1099 forms for transactions conducted on Coinbase Wallet.Â
Itâs possible this will change in the near future. Starting in 2027, certain digital wallet providers will be required to collect Know Your Customer (KYC) information and issue Form 1099-DA to users and the IRS. At this time, itâs not yet clear whether Coinbase Wallet will be required to comply with these rules.Â
Why doesnât Coinbase Wallet provide tax forms?Â
Thereâs a reason why Coinbase doesnât provide tax forms to Coinbase Wallet users.Â
Self-custody wallets donât always have access to your complete crypto transaction history â meaning that they donât have access to the data they need to accurately calculate capital gains and losses.Â
Unfortunately, keeping track of your taxes on your own can be difficult. Because transferring crypto between different wallets and exchanges is so common, it can be difficult to find information on cost basis needed for tax reporting.Â
Luckily, cryptocurrency tax software like CoinLedger can help you generate a complete crypto tax report in minutes.Â
