Taxable Event

A transaction or occurrence that triggers a tax obligation in your jurisdiction. In most jurisdictions, taxable crypto events include: selling crypto for fiat, swapping one crypto for another, spending crypto on goods or services, and (often) receiving staking rewards, airdrops, or hard-fork tokens. Transferring crypto between wallets you control is typically *not* a taxable event. Definitions vary materially by jurisdiction — the same DeFi action can be taxable in one country and non-taxable in another.
