I am a UK resident and I am quite interested in investing in cryptocurrencies. However, I am confused about the tax regulations regarding cryptocurrencies in the UK. Could you please clarify the tax-free limit for cryptocurrencies in a year in the UK? Also, could you provide some insight into how the taxes on cryptocurrencies are calculated and any other relevant information that I should be aware of?

In the United Kingdom, all individuals enjoy a Capital Gains tax-free allowance. This allowance represents a certain amount of profit from capital assets, including cryptocurrencies, that is exempt from taxation.

The current Capital Gains tax-free allowance for UK residents stands at £12,300. This means that if your total profits from cryptocurrencies and other capital assets fall below this threshold, you are not required to pay Capital Gains tax on those profits.

Cryptocurrency profits above the £12,300 threshold are subject to Capital Gains tax. Therefore, it is important for crypto investors to keep track of their profits and ensure they comply with tax regulations.
