This is what we refer to as crypto loans.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">You take a loan, keep your crypto as collateral. You pay back the loan and get your crypto back.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Pretty simple, isn\u2019t it?<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">However, if you default on your loan, the lender, which in this case would be the platform, can and probably will liquidate or sell your crypto assets to get their money back.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">In a similar scenario, if the collateralized crypto drops in value, the platform may liquidate some amount of it to maintain the required loan-to-value ratio (LTV).<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Different platforms have different limits set after which they&#8217;ll liquidate your crypto assets.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Keep these in mind for when we discuss their tax consequences.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong>What are Self-Repaying Crypto Loans and How Do They Work?<\/strong><\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Some platforms take your collateralized crypto and deposit them in yield generation schemes. These are called self-repaying crypto loans.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">How do they work?<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Over time, your collateralized crypto will generate income and repay the loan amount on its own.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Alchemix is an example of one such platform that provides self-repaying loans.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong>Where to Get Crypto Loans?<\/strong><\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">These are some platforms, both <a href=\"https:\/\/bitcoin.tax\/blog\/centralized-vs-decentralized-exchange\/\">centralized and decentralized<\/a>, to get crypto loans from &#8211;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\"><li><a href=\"https:\/\/blockfi.com\/\" rel=\"nofollow\">BlockFi<\/a><\/li><li><a href=\"https:\/\/spectrocoin.com\/\" rel=\"nofollow\">SpectroCoin<\/a><\/li><li><a href=\"https:\/\/nexo.io\/\" rel=\"nofollow\">Nexo<\/a><\/li><li><a href=\"https:\/\/alchemix.fi\/\" rel=\"nofollow\">Alchemix<\/a><\/li><li><a href=\"https:\/\/unchained.com\/\" rel=\"nofollow\">Unchained Capital<\/a><\/li><\/ul>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong>Crypto Loans &#8211; A Tax Saving Strategy?<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Let\u2019s talk about the use of crypto loans.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">As we said before, crypto loan taxes are pretty simple. They are generally non-taxable, except for a few unique scenarios. That\u2019s why, unlike traditional loans, many people use crypto loans as a way to avoid short-term capital gains taxes.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><strong>Consider this &#8211;<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">You bought 5 BTC for $5000 last month, which appreciated in value by $1000.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Now, for some reason, you need the cash.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">You have two options:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><strong>a)<\/strong> Sell those 5 BTC, get your $6000 and incur short-term capital gain taxes.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><strong>b)<\/strong> Take a loan for $6000, using your 5 BTC as collateral and avoid paying short-term capital gain taxes.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Many people prefer to hold on to their crypto for more than 12 months because long-term capital gain tax rates are cheaper than short-term capital gain tax rates.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Therefore, crypto loans are a great way to spend your crypto\u2019s value without actually triggering any taxable event.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong>Crypto Loan Taxes<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-image\"><figure class=\"aligncenter\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1080\" height=\"1080\" src=\"https:\/\/bitcoin.tax\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/03\/Crypto-Loans-Taxes.png\" alt=\"Crypto Loans Taxes\" class=\"wp-image-2058\" srcset=\"https:\/\/bitcoin.tax\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/03\/Crypto-Loans-Taxes.png 1080w, https:\/\/bitcoin.tax\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/03\/Crypto-Loans-Taxes-300x300.png 300w, https:\/\/bitcoin.tax\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/03\/Crypto-Loans-Taxes-1024x1024.png 1024w, https:\/\/bitcoin.tax\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/03\/Crypto-Loans-Taxes-150x150.png 150w, https:\/\/bitcoin.tax\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/03\/Crypto-Loans-Taxes-768x768.png 768w, https:\/\/bitcoin.tax\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/03\/Crypto-Loans-Taxes-980x980.png 980w, https:\/\/bitcoin.tax\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/03\/Crypto-Loans-Taxes-480x480.png 480w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1080px) 100vw, 1080px\" \/><\/figure><\/div>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Now, let&#8217;s talk about the different tax consequences of crypto loans.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong>Are Crypto Loans Taxable?<\/strong><\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">No, taking loans using your crypto as collateral isn\u2019t taxable.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">As covered in our <a href=\"https:\/\/bitcoin.tax\/blog\/crypto-taxable-events\/\">crypto tax guide<\/a>, disposing of your crypto triggers a taxable event.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">However, in the case of crypto loans, you\u2019re not actually disposing of your crypto. You\u2019re only collateralizing it. So, it doesn\u2019t trigger a taxable event. Hence, there are crypto loan taxes on borrowing a loan.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong>Crypto Loan Taxes on Paying Off the Loan<\/strong><\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The same logic applies when paying off your crypto loan.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">In other words, no, repaying your crypto loan isn\u2019t taxable.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong>Crypto Loan Taxes on Spending the Loan Amount<\/strong><\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Unless you\u2019re borrowing crypto for crypto, you won\u2019t get taxed on spending your loan amount.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Only if you borrow another cryptocurrency, say Ethereum, will you get taxed on spending the loan amount.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong>Crypto Loan Taxes on Interests<\/strong><\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The only time interests on crypto loans are tax-deductible is when you take the loan for business purposes. Interests on any loan taken for personal use and expenses will not be tax-deductible.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong>Crypto Loan Taxes on Self-Repaying Loans<\/strong><\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Though guidelines on this are not very clear, our best guess is that it&#8217;ll trigger income tax liability under debt cancellation income.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong>Crypto Loan Taxes on Liquidations<\/strong><\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">This is the only time you have to pay crypto loan tax. It\u2019s when the platform liquidates your collateralized crypto assets.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">As discussed before, it can happen for one of two reasons &#8211;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">a) You are defaulting on your crypto loans.<br>b) The value of your collateralized crypto drops below a certain threshold set by the platform.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">In both scenarios, you&#8217;ll trigger an unwanted taxable event. Not only will you lose your collateralized crypto, but you&#8217;ll also have to pay taxes for it.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong><span data-preserver-spaces=\"true\">Final Thoughts<\/span><\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><span data-preserver-spaces=\"true\">Overall, crypto loans are a pretty good way to use your crypto&#8217;s value without disposing of your crypto or incurring short-term gains.&nbsp;<\/span><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Many DeFi platforms allow you to borrow loans using your crypto as collateral.
