Summ (formerly Crypto Tax Calculator) makes calculating your Solana taxes quick and easy by automatically importing your data and generating comprehensive tax reports based on your local tax laws.
To get started:
Using specialised tax software like Summ (formerly Crypto Tax Calculator) to calculate your Solana taxes is much easier than doing it manually.
Summ will automatically categorise your Solana transactions, meaning that it can identify things like liquidity pools, bridging, fees and staking in addition to all of your buy and sell activity.
It will then produce an accurate report that can be exported in a format that meets the reporting standards of local tax authorities like the IRS, ATO and HMRC.
Here’s how to get started:
First, you must import your Solana transaction data to Summ. Here are the two main methods:
This method uses a secure API feed to transfer your transaction data to Summ. Using an API ensures that your data will be updated over time, so that any change in your Solana balances are reflected in Summ.
Some users might prefer uploading a CSV.
Once your Solana data is imported to Summ via API or CSV, you can calculate your taxes with a few clicks.
Generate a comprehensive tax report ready for your accountant or local tax authority.

If you’ve been using %blockchainName%, it’s important to understand how to report your crypto taxes. Like most blockchains, %blockchainName% does not automatically report, calculate, or issue tax forms for you. It’s up to users to report their gains, losses, and income based on their activity. This must include all blockchains and exchanges you’ve transacted on, not just %blockchainName%. The good news is that Crypto Tax Calculator makes calculating your %blockchainName% and crypto taxes quick and easy by automatically importing your data and generating comprehensive tax reports.
1. Create an account on Crypto Tax Calculator or log in if you already have one.
2. Select %blockchainName% in the Accounts list.
3. Import your %blockchainName% transactions using API or CSV.
4. Let our software calculate your gains, losses, and income.
5. Download your tax report and file it with your taxes.
Disclaimer: The information in this guide is general in nature and not written for a specific tax jurisdiction or audience.
If you have been transacting on %blockchainName% during the tax year, or sold any %blockchainCode%, then it’s likely you will need to pay tax based on your trading activity.
Typically, anytime you sell crypto for fiat, trade crypto-to-crypto, or earn crypto income (e.g., through staking or rewards on %blockchainName%), it is considered a taxable event in most countries.
The exact tax you owe (capital gains or income tax) will depend on your local regulations and the specifics of each transaction. Check our list of local crypto tax guides for details on how cryptocurrency is taxed in your jurisdiction.
In most parts of the world, you do not pay any tax when you purchase crypto.
It is only when you later dispose of that crypto – i.e., sell it or trade it for another asset – that a taxable event occurs and you need to report it on your tax.
The following are common transactions on blockchains like %blockchainName% which are relevant to tax:
Most countries typically tax proceeds earned from selling investments differently from money earned as income. In crypto, you may be subject to both capital gains and income tax, depending on the nature of your transaction:
Whenever you sell %blockchainCode% or make a crypto-to-crypto swap using the %blockchainName% blockchain, you are disposing of an asset.
If the value of the crypto at the time of sale/trade is higher than when you acquired it, you have a taxable capital gain.
If it’s lower, you have a capital loss (which can often be used to offset other gains).
Crypto Tax Calculator will automatically calculate these gains and losses for each trade using your imported transaction data. It will also account for fees according to your local tax rules.
If you received crypto as a reward on %blockchainName% for activities such as staking, lending, or yield farming – those tokens are usually considered income.
The value of the crypto at the time and date you received needs to be reported as income. It also forms the cost basis if you later sell the asset.
Crypto Tax Calculator will automatically categorise income tax events and treat them according to your local tax rules.

The taxation of DeFi platforms like %exchangeName% can vary depending on your tax jurisdiction.
Most countries typically tax proceeds earned from selling investments differently from money earned as income. You may be subject to both capital gains (CGT) and income tax, depending on the nature of your transaction.
Here’s how transactions on DeFi platforms like %exchangeName% might be treated:
%exchangeName% is not required to report user activity to the IRS, however, that does not mean your transactions can’t be traced.
Blockchains are public ledgers, which makes it easy to track a wallet's activity. The IRS uses sophisticated data collection and analysis to match your real-world identity with your on-chain activity.
First, you will need to import your %blockchainName% transaction data to Crypto Tax Calculator. Here’s how:
This method uses a secure API feed to transfer your transaction data from the %blockchainName% to Crypto Tax Calculator. Using an API ensures that your data will be updated over time.

Here’s how to file your crypto tax report with your local tax authority:
After importing, you can generate a tax report for %blockchainName% and any other accounts you linked. This report will detail your net capital gains, losses, and income from crypto for your chosen financial year.
Review it to make sure everything looks correct. If something looks off, return to the Review tab to ensure all transactions are categorized correctly; check the Accounts tab to ensure all your accounts and their transactions have been added.
Crypto Tax Calculator can produce specific forms or summaries needed for filing. Simply check the options in the Downloads section of the tax report and choose the one you need.
For example, if you live in the US, it can produce a report ready to upload to TurboTax, as well as forms like Form 8949 and Schedule D that are pre-filled and contain the relevant information for crypto.
Crypto Tax Calculator’s reports are designed to be tax office compliant and make this straightforward.

If you registered with %exchangeName% as a resident of the United States, then starting in the 2025 tax year, the exchange is required to report your customer data and transactions to the IRS.
Other tax authorities around the globe, like the ATO, HMRC, CRA are also engaged in data-sharing programmes with exchanges like %exchangeName%. They may also use blockchain analytics tools, data-sharing between banks and KYC and AML data to match your identity with your trading activity on %exchangeName%.
Exchanges like %exchangeName% do not provide tax forms with a neat breakdown of your tax obligations. This is because tax rules vary between countries and jurisdictions, which requires specialised software to handle additional complexities of crypto tax. Additionally, any assets you transfer onto the platform will be missing an accurate cost basis.
Fortunately, you can connect your exchange account to Crypto Tax Calculator via API or upload your transaction data using CSV. Crypto Tax Calculator will then combine this data with any other accounts or wallets you connect to provide you with an accurate tax report ready to submit to your tax agent, accountant or local tax authority.
You can connect as many supported exchange accounts, wallets or blockchains as you like, with reports available for all previous years on a single plan.

%blockchainName% is a popular crypto wallet that lets you store and manage your cryptocurrency. If you made trades, earned rewards, or interacted with DeFi using %blockchainName%, you may need to report those transactions on your taxes.
%blockchainName% does not automatically report, calculate, or issue tax forms for you.
The good news is that Crypto Tax Calculator makes calculating your %blockchainName% and crypto taxes quick and easy by automatically importing your data to generate a comprehensive tax report.
Disclaimer: The information in this guide is general in nature and not written for a specific tax jurisdiction or audience.
If you have been using %blockchainName% to trade crypto or use DeFi, then you will likely need to pay tax on those transactions.
The exact tax you owe will depend on whether your transactions are classified as capital gains or income. Check our list of local crypto tax guides for details on how cryptocurrency is taxed in your jurisdiction.
If you sent crypto to your %blockchainName% wallet and paid transaction fees in crypto (such as Ethereum Gas), then that transaction is a taxable event.
This is because you are taxed any time you dispose of your crypto.
When you pay a network fee in crypto, it is treated as though you sold (i.e., dispose) of your crypto. So even if you only paid a small fee, you will still need to pay a small amount of tax on that transaction.
Crypto Tax Calculator makes it easy to calculate the total tax owed from your %blockchainName% transactions over the tax year.
These are how some common transactions using %blockchainName% are taxed:
Most countries typically tax proceeds earned from selling investments differently from money earned as income. In crypto, you may be subject to both capital gains and income tax, depending on the nature of your transaction.
Crypto Tax Calculator categorizes these events for you, based on your tax jurisdiction. This helps ensure that you pay the correct tax rate based on your %blockchainName% transactions, and receive any sort of discounts or allowances based on your local tax rules.
Whenever you dispose of crypto using %blockchainName% you are charged capital gains tax.
Disposals include things like selling crypto, swapping crypto-to-crypto, depositing crypto into DeFi, or paying network fees using crypto.

If it’s lower, you have a capital loss (which can often be used to offset other gains).

If you've been trading crypto on %exchangeName%, understanding how to properly report your taxes is more critical than ever. With the introduction of IRS Form 1099-DA, exchanges like %exchangeName% are now required to report your crypto transactions, profits, loss and income directly to the IRS. However, this information from exchanges may be incorrect or incomplete, and it's up to you to report the accurate figures to the IRS.
The good news is that Crypto Tax Calculator makes calculating your %exchangeName% taxes quick and easy by automatically importing your data and generating comprehensive tax reports.
1. Create an account on Crypto Tax Calculator or log in if you already have one.
2. Select %exchangeName% in the Accounts list.

Disclaimer: The information in this guide is for US taxpayers and is general in nature. Cryptocurrency tax laws are complex and subject to change. Consult a tax professional for advice tailored to your circumstances.
Starting in 2026, %exchangeName% will issue Form 1099-DA (Digital Asset Proceeds From Broker Transactions) to report your crypto transactions from the 2025 tax year directly to the IRS. This marks a significant shift in crypto tax reporting.
For the 2025 tax year (forms issued in early 2026), your 1099-DA will show:
Starting with the 2026 tax year and beyond, your 1099-DA will also include:
Here's the challenge: %exchangeName% can only report cost basis for crypto that you bought and sold entirely on their platform.
If you transferred crypto into %exchangeName% from another wallet or exchange, %exchangeName% has no record of your original purchase price (cost basis). In these cases, the 1099-DA may show a blank cost basis or $0 – making it look like your entire proceeds are taxable gains, even when they're not. You could wind up paying thousands of dollars of tax even if you made a loss.
Additionally, the 1099-DA won't capture:
This is where Crypto Tax Calculator becomes essential. Our platform aggregates your complete transaction history across all exchanges, wallets, and DeFi protocols to calculate your true cost basis and ensure your tax report matches the IRS's records while accurately reflecting your actual tax liability.
Yes. If you've been transacting on %exchangeName% during the tax year, you're required to report your crypto activity to the IRS.
In the United States, anytime you sell crypto for cash, trade one crypto for another, or earn crypto income (such as staking rewards or referral bonuses on %exchangeName%), it's considered a taxable event.
The type of tax you owe depends on the transaction:
The IRS treats cryptocurrency as property, which means the same tax rules that apply to stocks and other investments also apply to your crypto transactions on %exchangeName%.
No. Simply buying and holding crypto is not a taxable event in the United States.
You only owe taxes when you later sell, trade, or otherwise dispose of that crypto. However, you should keep careful records of your purchase price and date, as this information will be needed to calculate your cost basis when you eventually sell.
The following are common transactions on cryptocurrency exchanges like %exchangeName% which are relevant to tax:
In the US, proceeds from selling investments are taxed differently than income you earn. With crypto, you may be subject to both capital gains and income tax, depending on the transaction type:
Whenever you sell, swap or trade crypto on %exchangeName%, you're disposing of an asset for tax purposes.
If the value at the time of sale is higher than when you acquired it, you have a taxable capital gain. If it's lower, you have a capital loss, which can be used to offset other gains and reduce your tax bill.
Capital gains from crypto are reported on IRS Form 8949 and Schedule D. The proceeds on your Form 8949 must match what's reported on your 1099-DA from %exchangeName%–which is why accurate record-keeping across all your crypto accounts is essential.
Crypto Tax Calculator automatically calculates your gains and losses for each trade, properly accounts for transaction fees, and generates Form 8949 reports that reconcile with your 1099-DA forms.
If you received crypto on %exchangeName% through staking rewards, lending interest, referral bonuses, or other earning activities, the IRS treats this as ordinary income.
You must report the fair market value of the crypto on the date you received it as income on your tax return. This value also becomes your cost basis if you later sell those tokens.
Crypto Tax Calculator automatically identifies and categorizes income events, calculates the USD value at the time of receipt, and ensures everything is reported correctly for IRS compliance.
Yes. Starting with the 2025 tax year, %exchangeName% is required by law to report your digital asset transactions to the IRS using Form 1099-DA.
This means the IRS will have a record of your gross proceeds (and eventually cost basis) from crypto transactions on %exchangeName%. You'll receive a copy of your 1099-DA in early 2026 for your 2025 transactions.
The IRS can also use blockchain analytics, bank data sharing, and Know Your Customer (KYC) information to connect your identity to your crypto activity–even across multiple platforms. The bottom line: your crypto transactions are not anonymous to the IRS.
Starting in 2026, %exchangeName% will send you Form 1099-DA showing your gross proceeds from digital asset sales during the 2025 tax year. However, this form alone won't give you everything you need to accurately file your taxes.
Your 1099-DA from %exchangeName% only shows activity on that single platform. It won't include:
Without aggregating data from all your crypto accounts, you risk either overpaying taxes or filing an inaccurate return that doesn't match your 1099-DA–potentially triggering an IRS audit.
Connect your %exchangeName% account to Crypto Tax Calculator via API or CSV upload. We'll automatically combine this data with all your other exchanges, wallets, and DeFi protocols to:
You can connect unlimited accounts and generate reports for any previous tax year on a single plan.

This method uses a secure API feed to transfer your transaction data to Crypto Tax Calculator. Using an API ensures that your data will be updated over time, so that any change in your %exchangeName% balance is reflected in Crypto Tax Calculator.
Not all exchanges provide easy API access; some users might prefer CSV. Sign in to Crypto Tax Calculator or create an account. Navigate to the Accounts tab and click + Add accounts.

Add any other exchange accounts, wallets or transaction data to Crypto Tax Calculator. You will need to upload your entire crypto transaction history for an accurate report.

Solana has quickly grown to become one of the most popular layer-one blockchains.
While various decentralized finance (DeFi) applications have been available on Solana for years, the network became a cornerstone of the market in 2024 with the emergence of the memecoin craze.
All of this new activity has created increased interest in terms of Solana taxes.
While most local tax authorities haven't provided specific guidance for Solana itself, rulings about cryptocurrency and DeFi in general can be applied to determine your tax liabilities.
For instance, the Internal Revenue Service (IRS) in the U.S. and various tax agencies in other jurisdictions have provided plenty of guidance related to crypto taxes, as well as specific guidance for DeFi in some cases.
This Solana tax guide will help you understand the taxes that you may owe as a result of using various Solana DeFi applications.

Solana can be used to build a wide variety of DeFi applications.
Any crypto use case, from stablecoins to non-fungible tokens (NFTs), can be found on Solana, which means there’s a large range of taxable events you may have engaged in.
Some of the most common taxable activities on Solana include:
The diversity in DeFi applications found on Solana means there could be a several different types of taxes that need to be considered, perhaps even in a single transaction.
To help you manage this, consider using software such as Crypto Tax Calculator to make sure you’re keeping track and paying the necessary taxes.
Memecoins were the first major use case for Solana that had not previously been found on other platforms, at least at the scale found on Solana. While memecoins on their own, separate crypto networks, such as Dogecoin, had previously existed, the introduction of Pump.fun on Solana allowed anyone to easily create their own memecoin in an easy and simple manner.
Whether you’re a creator of memecoins or just someone who trades them, there are a few different areas of potential Solana taxation that should be watched. Additionally, the way in which a memecoin is generated can alter the tax obligations for the creator of the coin.
If you have created a memecoin, you are likely taxed as the owner of that asset. That means that you pay income tax on the full proceeds of the coin when it is sold. In other words, your cost basis is $0 for the asset.
If you purchased your own coin on Pump.fun, you will establish a cost basis for the asset equal to the FMV minus any applicable fees. This is different than the above scenario because you are purchasing the asset and not creating it.
Whether it be memecoins, stablecoins, or other Solana-based assets, there is plenty of DEX activity that takes place on this layer-one blockchain. And the tax obligations of DEX trading activity is similar to how things work on traditional, centralized exchanges.
In terms of Solana taxes related to DEX trading, the main thing you will need to think about is the profit made any time you sell an asset. These gains are subject to capital gains taxes in most jurisdictions.
Notably, you could be subject to a taxable event any time you trade between two different crypto assets on a Solana-based DEX, even if those assets are intended to be equal to each other in value (such as two US-dollar stablecoins). For this reason, it’s essential to remain as thorough as possible when it comes to tracking your Solana transactions. is taxed
Borrowing and lending crypto assets and stablecoins has become one of the most prominent use cases of this technology over the years, and the low fees associated with Solana make it the perfect base layer for this sort of activity. In most cases, DeFi users are looking to borrow stablecoins against their crypto asset holdings as a way to access that liquidity without having to sell the underlying assets.
It should be noted that borrowing against your crypto holdings is not a risk-free endeavor, as liquidation events can occur in a situation where crypto prices see a sharp downturn in a short period of time. These liquidation events also have their own tax implications, as the liquidation of crypto collateral is effectively a sale of those crypto holdings where capital gains must be tracked.
To be clear, borrowing stablecoins against crypto assets will generally not involve a taxable event, as long as a liquidation event does not occur. That said, liquidation events can introduce additional complexity where the assistance of a tax professional or crypto tax software like Crypto Tax Calculator can be immensely helpful.
In terms of the lending side of the equation, anyone who is lending stablecoins, for example, to another party in a DeFi application will need to track their earned interest. Interest earned from lending crypto assets to others will generally be taxed as income in most jurisdictions.

Solana is a proof-of-stake network, which means holders of the network’s underlying crypto asset, SOL, are able to leverage their holdings to participate in the consensus process. In exchange for participating in consensus, SOL stakers are able to earn rewards based on newly-issued SOL and the transactions taking place on the network at any one time. Check out our full staking guide for more information on how this DeFi activity works.
In most tax jurisdictions around the world, staking rewards tend to be treated as taxable income, similar to the earned interest covered in the previous section. That said, there may be other Solana tax considerations to be made if you’re converting your SOL rewards to cash or other crypto assets rather than simply holding the SOL or adding it to your staking stack. In a situation where the SOL rewards have increased in value before they are sold for another asset, capital gains taxes will likely come into play.
Bridging is the process by which an asset can be effectively transferred from one blockchain network to another. From a technical perspective, the bridging process usually works by freezing a crypto asset in a smart contract on the source crypto network and issuing a new, derivative token on the new network.
Bridging taxation is oftentimes an overlooked part of DeFi activity because some users do not view it as swapping one asset for another. While it may be seen as being overly compliant to some DeFi users, the reality is that bridging an asset from one network to another could be construed as a taxable event in some jurisdictions because it is still swapping one asset for another—even though those assets are intended to be equal to each other.
This is the sort of Solana tax question where there is still a lack of absolute clarity in many jurisdictions, so you’ll want to consult with a tax professional in your local area to gain better guidance. When it comes to a new, emerging asset class like crypto, it is usually best to err on the side of caution when it comes to potential tax ambiguity.
