➡️ You didn't trade, didn't short, didn't do a backflip on futures. Just 'bought and forgot'. And now the tax office seems to hint: 'But you, my friend, declared your love for Bitcoin?'
So, holding is already suspicious. In a world where exchanging USDT for hryvnias in the hallway is seen as money laundering, the fact that you 'did nothing' raises even more questions.
Legally, it is not yet clearly regulated in Ukraine whether you need to pay taxes on the increase in the value of an asset if you haven't sold it yet. But the tax office can say: 'Your hold looks like an investment. And an investment is future income. And income is ours!'
And here comes the best part — you receive a letter asking you to explain: what is 'STX', why has it increased by 400%, and where are your 19.5% personal income tax from the profit. And you sit there, holding a hardware wallet in your hands, thinking: 'But it’s not even in USDT yet...'
In short:
Held tokens? As long as you haven't sold them — breathe easy.
Sold/exchanged/withdrew to fiat? Congratulations, you can now be checked.
The bank noticed regular P2P movements? Expect an invitation for coffee with financial monitoring.
And the main thing — the tax office is not joking, even if you just 'believed in blockchain'. So either declare it, or prepare arguments for why your MetaMask is not an account, but just a 'wallet of dreams'.
