Frequently asked questions

Why donate crypto?

Donating cryptocurrency to TLC is tax efficient and can save you money. The IRS classifies cryptocurrency as property for tax purposes, which means it is typically the most tax efficient way to make a charitable gift. When donating crypto, you receive a tax deduction for the fair market value of the crypto and you avoid the capital gains tax you would have incurred if you had sold the crypto and then made a donation. That means you’re able to donate more, as well as deduct more on your tax return. If you want to learn more about how donating crypto can lower your taxes, check out The Giving Block’s Crypto Tax Survival Guide. As with any tax-related questions, be sure to consult with a qualified, professional tax advisor.

Are crypto donations tax-deductibles?

Yes! Crypto donations are one of the most tax-efficient ways to give to charity. Your crypto donation is tax-deductible to the fullest extent permitted by law if you pay taxes in the U.S. By making a charitable gift, you may also be eligible to significantly reduce what you would otherwise owe in capital gains taxes.
