Tax-event estimator
A rough estimator with honest jurisdiction presets - not tax advice. The general pattern: spending bitcoin disposes of a capital asset.
About the Bitcoin Tax-Event Estimator
Spending bitcoin from a card is a disposal in most jurisdictions. The estimator shows whether your card spend triggers a taxable event in the US, Germany or the UK, with a worked example from your numbers.
How it works
- Pick your jurisdiction and enter the spend and your cost basis.
- The calculator applies the documented rule: per-transaction disposal in the US, the one-year holding rule in Germany, the same disposal logic in the UK.
- It shows the taxable gain or the exemption - not a tax return.
FAQ
Is this tax advice?

Which countries are covered?
US, Germany and UK presets. The general principle - spending a crypto asset is a disposal - applies in most jurisdictions with different thresholds.
