Is cryptocurrency taxable in Canada?
Rounding it up
The CRA does tax most cryptocurrency transactions.
Canadians do not have to pay taxes for buying or holding cryptocurrency.
Taxpayers are subject to pay capital gains or business income tax after selling or mining cryptocurrency.
The percentage of net profits that are taxable depends on whether the profits are classified as capital gains or business income.
