CoinTracking launches crypto tax tool for UK investors
Crypto taxation in the UK is quickly changing, but CoinTracking has launched a crypto tax tool that simplifies UK crypto taxes.
Crypto taxes in the UK challenges
The law in the UK taxes cryptocurrencies with tax rates depending on the nature of the transactions, with several caveats that investors need to address each tax season.
Cryptocurrencies can be taxed at a capital gains or income level, with tax rates going from 0% to over 40%. Due largely to the complexity of crypto taxation, research indicates that over 99% of investors are not reporting their taxes, facing high penalties.
The leading crypto tax software since 2013, CoinTracking, has addressed these challenges and becomes the go-to solution for investors.
A crypto tax tool designed for the UK
With a crypto tax software like CoinTracking, UK-based investors can track their crypto portfolios by importing trades from hundreds of exchanges, crypto wallets and blockchain networks.
From there, investors can benefit from 25+ advanced reporting features, including discovering which coins in their portfolio could be eligible for a lower tax rate based on their holding period.
With these features, investors can gather all the necessary information and generate the right tax reports. This is possible due to CoinTracking supporting gains calculations according to the valid accounting method in the UK, the HMRC.
“Crypto taxes are a big challenge across countries, with constant changes to the requirements investors have to follow. CoinTracking supports the needs of crypto investors in the UK to do their taxes in a few steps,” Dario Kachel, founder and CEO of CoinTracking.
CoinTracking launches Full-Service in the UK for a hands-off solution
Investors needing further help with their taxes can find a solution with CoinTracking Full-Service, where a team of CT experts and partner crypto tax firms review, validate & adjust their transactions, complete imports and ensure correct tax reports.
CoinTracking is available in 25+ countries, including the UK, where investors can choose from several services, from premium support to account reviews or a full UK crypto tax return service.
“Full-Service was specially designed for UK investors with complex crypto trades to report and not a lot of time to work out the intricacies of taxes.” Florian Ostermeier, Head of Full-Service.

Hong Kong has entered the cryptocurrency ETF market with the debut of its first spot cryptocurrency exchange-traded funds (ETFs) on Tuesday, signaling the city’s ambition to compete with the US in the rapidly growing sector.
The launch, led by the Hong Kong units of three mainland Chinese asset managers — Bosera Asset Management, Harvest Global Investments, and China Asset Management — saw the introduction of two ETFs each tracking bitcoin and ether prices. Bosera’s funds were launched in collaboration with HashKey Capital.
On their debut, the three bitcoin ETFs closed between 1.5% and 1.8% higher, while the ether ETFs experienced slight losses of between 0.5% and 0.8%. Despite this, total trading turnover for all six ETFs, which included trading in US dollars, Hong Kong dollars, and renminbi, reached approximately HK$99.5 million (US$12.7 million). In comparison, US-based funds saw turnover exceeding $4 billion on their first trading day.
The move marks Hong Kong’s commitment to becoming a significant player in the cryptocurrency space, following its announcement in 2022 amid pandemic restrictions and increased Chinese oversight. Joseph Chan, Hong Kong’s under-secretary for financial services and the treasury, emphasized the city’s leading position in Asia’s crypto asset development during the ETF listing ceremony.
Prior to this, CSOP Asset Management had launched Hong Kong’s first bitcoin and ether futures ETFs in late 2022, following the publication of rules for spot ETFs by the Securities and Futures Commission in December.
In January, the US Securities and Exchange Commission approved the country’s first spot bitcoin ETFs, which have since attracted significant assets under management and net inflows. Robert Zhan, director of risk consulting at KPMG China, remains optimistic about the potential of the Hong Kong funds, despite current market sentiments and relatively flat prices of bitcoin and ether leading up to the launch.
The launch of crypto-linked funds by major Chinese asset managers has generated excitement within the industry, despite China’s strict cryptocurrency regulations. Donald Day, COO of Hong Kong-based digital asset exchange VDX, believes the new funds will cater to active investors unable or unwilling to trade during US hours.
