How are Opera Wallet transactions taxed?

Your crypto taxes vary depending on where you live and your transactions, but generally speaking, you’ll pay Capital Gains Tax or Income Tax (or both).

  • Capital Gains Tax:  Whenever you sell or swap crypto using Opera Wallet - whether that’s coins, tokens, stablecoins, or NFTs - if you make a gain from the transaction, you’ll likely pay Capital Gains Tax on that gain.

  • Income Tax: Meanwhile, if you earn new tokens and receive them in your Opera Wallet - for example staking or yield farming rewards - you’ll likely pay Income Tax upon receipt.

Does Opera Wallet report to the IRS?

No. Opera Wallet is a built-in non-custodial wallet that collects no KYC data and does not report to the IRS.

How do I file my Opera Wallet taxes?

You need to report any gains, losses, or income from crypto investments to your tax office, generally as part of your annual tax return, including any taxable gains or income from your Opera Wallet investments.

You can do this yourself - but it’s difficult! You’ll need to identify all your taxable transactions, not just for Opera Wallet, but for every wallet and exchange you use, then identify the kind of tax that applies and calculate your gains and losses, as well as any income.

This is why most investors opt to use crypto tax software like Koinly. Koinly does all this for you and generates your tax report, ready to file with your tax office. Koinly works by importing your Opera Wallet transaction data, all you need to do is connect using your public address.
