A Taxable Event is any transaction or occurrence that triggers a tax liability according to relevant tax laws. In the context of digital assets, this includes activities such as selling cryptocurrency for fiat, exchanging one cryptocurrency for another, or using crypto to purchase goods or services. Mining, staking rewards, and certain airdrops can also constitute taxable events. Proper identification of these events is crucial for compliance.
