Do I need to pay taxes when using Knaken?
In most countries multiple transaction types on Knaken will be seen as a taxable event by the local tax authority. Particularly trades and staking rewards. If you are unsure which transaction types affect you, please see Divly’s country-specific crypto tax guides.
If you are from the Netherlands you won’t need to worry about paying taxes on each transaction. Instead you will be required to pay wealth tax based on the amount of crypto you held at the end of the year amongst all of your exchanges and wallets.
