Launch guide

UK crypto tax: a swap can matter even when no cash reaches your bank

Keep crypto records while the details are still easy to find
Build a private transaction trail, with local-currency values and transfer evidence, before tax season.
Selling crypto and getting money into your bank are two separate steps
Check withdrawable cash, deposit holds, supported bank routes and final costs.
Your portfolio value is a display, not a guaranteed sale price
Check an executable quote, liquidity and costs before treating a displayed balance as cash.
A lending balance is not a guarantee of immediate withdrawal
Check available liquidity and collateral restrictions before relying on a crypto lending balance.
Before staking, find out how you would get out
Separate protocol exit queues, provider processing and selling a staking token.
More tokens can still mean less money: read a yield number carefully
Distinguish an annualized rate, token rewards and actual proceeds after price changes, costs and taxes.
A stablecoin price is not your redemption right
Separate selling a token on an exchange from redeeming it with an issuer, and check the rules for your location.
The trading fee is only one part of a crypto purchase’s cost
Compare what you pay, what you receive and what it will cost to move or sell later.
Before you send crypto, check more than the address
