Disclaimer: Kraken does not provide tax advice. Depending on your country's regulatory framework, you may have to pay taxes on capital gains from trading digital assets or on the value of your digital asset portfolio. You may also have to pay taxes on other income you earn such as from staking* or loaning your crypto. The regulatory framework for taxation of cryptocurrencies differs from country to country. The US has not issued specific guidance addressing the taxation of staking* rewards for US tax residents. We strongly advise you to contact a personal tax advisor for further information about your personal tax circumstances.
