Yes! We accept all major cryptocurrencies through our donation platform, The Giving Block. Like a standard donation, your crypto contribution may be tax deductible. Read more below for commonly asked crypto tax write-off questions. As always, please consult with a tax professional.
No! Cryptocurrencies are treated as property by the IRS, so donors are not required to cash out their holdings before donating. This keeps the process simpler and could reduce administrative fees for the nonprofit.
In the U.S., if you donate cryptocurrency directly to a qualified 501(c)(3) nonprofit, you may be able to deduct the full fair market value of the asset on your taxes (if held for over a year). This is often limited to 30% of your adjusted gross income (AGI), but excess donations can be carried forward for up to five years.
Over a year. If the crypto has been held for less than a year, the deductible amount is limited to the asset’s cost basis (the original purchase price), rather than its appreciated value.
Donors who claim a deduction must file IRS Form 8283 for donations valued over $500. For donations over $5,000, an additional qualified appraisal might be required, though crypto donations have unique appraisal regulations that could vary.
No, by donating crypto directly, donors can avoid paying capital gains tax on any appreciation. This can be especially beneficial if the crypto has significantly increased in value since it was purchased.
For international donations, it’s best to consult specific tax rules, as tax treatment for crypto donations varies by country.
