Navigating cryptocurrency taxation can be complex, especially as regulations and best practices evolve each year. Singapore continues to solidify its reputation as one of the world’s most crypto-friendly countries—and understanding its tax framework is essential for new and seasoned investors alike. Whether you’re trading Bitcoin, earning staking rewards, or exploring the latest DeFi opportunities, this comprehensive 2025 Singapore crypto tax guide covers everything you need to know: from whether you need to pay tax, how the Inland Revenue Authority of Singapore (IRAS) views various crypto activities, to the key deadlines and strategies to simplify your reporting. With in-depth tables, detailed scenarios, and authoritative answers, this guide ensures you’ll be tax-ready for the year ahead.

Do You Pay Cryptocurrency Taxes in Singapore?

One of the most attractive aspects of Singapore’s tax environment is its favorable approach to cryptocurrency for most individual investors. Here’s what you need to know:

Individual Investors: No Capital Gains Tax

For most people purchasing cryptocurrencies as a means of investment—whether you’re holding Bitcoin, Ethereum, or any other digital asset—there is no capital gains tax under Singaporean law. This means that if you purchase cryptocurrency and later sell it for a profit, that gain is not subject to tax as long as you’re considered an individual investor and not conducting business activity.

Business or Trading Activity: Taxable Income

The rules change if your activities resemble those of a professional trader or a business. If you trade crypto frequently or in a highly organized, structured way, the IRAS may assess your profits as business income. In this case, your gains could be taxed at Singapore’s progressive income tax rates, which can rise as high as 24% for resident individuals in 2025.

Goods and Services Tax (GST)

As of 2025, Goods and Services Tax (GST)—currently set at 8%—generally doesn’t apply to buying and selling most cryptocurrencies, thanks to regulatory clarity provided by IRAS in classifying many coins as Digital Payment Tokens (DPTs). However, if you transact in tokens that do NOT qualify as DPTs, or you incur exchange/platform fees that do not fall under the exemption, GST may apply.

Key Insight:
Your tax obligations hinge on how the IRAS classifies your activity. For most individual holders and casual traders, Singapore offers a remarkably tax-friendly environment. However, structured trading, business-like activities, or earning crypto from work could create taxable events.

How Much Tax Do You Pay on Crypto in Singapore?

No Tax for Most Individual Investors

If you buy, hold, or sporadically sell cryptocurrency as a private individual, you typically pay no tax on your gains. This extends to profits from selling, swapping, or even gifting crypto in a personal capacity.

Tax Rates for Crypto Income & Business Activities

If your crypto activity is considered business income—think frequent, systematic trading, or providing crypto-related services—your earnings are taxed at Singapore’s progressive income tax rates for individuals. For businesses or sole proprietorships, these rates mirror standard income tax brackets:

Taxable Income (SGD)

Tax Rate 2025

Up to $20,0000%
$20,001 – $30,0002%
$30,001 – $40,0003.5%
$40,001 – $80,0007%
$80,001 – $120,00011.5%
$120,001 – $160,00015%
$160,001 – $200,00018%
$200,001 – $240,00019%
$240,001 – $280,00019.5%
$280,001 – $320,00020%
$320,001 – $500,00022%
$500,001 – $1,000,00023%
Over $1,000,00024%

For non-residents, most income (including crypto classified as income) is taxed at a flat 24% rate. Salaries for regular employment may be taxed at 15% or the resident rate, whichever is higher.

GST on Crypto Transactions: What You Need to Know

  • GST is 8% in 2025.
  • No GST is applied to transactions involving Digital Payment Tokens (DPTs) such as Bitcoin, Ethereum, or similar tokens as long as they fit IRAS’s DPT definition.
  • If a crypto asset does not qualify as a DPT, or if you are charged transaction fees (e.g., by an exchange) not exempt as DPT dealing, GST may apply to those fees only.

Can the Iras Track Crypto?

How the IRAS Monitors Cryptocurrency Activity

Like tax authorities around the world, the IRAS has developed methods to identify and track cryptocurrency transactions. Here’s how:

Cooperation from Exchanges

Many centralized exchanges operating in Singapore must comply with KYC (Know Your Customer) and AML (Anti-Money Laundering) regulations. These platforms are required to retain and, if necessary, provide transaction records to authorities. Thus, if you’re trading or exchanging cryptocurrency on major platforms, those activities can be traced.

Blockchain Transparency

Blockchain networks themselves are pseudonymous but publicly available. If the IRAS links your identity to a particular wallet address—such as through exchange data, payment receipts, or declarations—they can analyze wallet transactions and transfers for compliance.

Cross-Border Data Sharing

Singapore participates in international financial regulations and may share or receive data about cryptocurrency activity from other jurisdictions in cases involving tax compliance or investigation.

Record-Keeping Requirements

The IRAS recommends maintaining thorough records for all crypto transactions, including date, value in SGD, wallet addresses, and counterparties.

Practical Example

If you sell crypto on a major Singapore exchange, the platform may report end-of-year transaction summaries to IRAS, especially for high-volume accounts or when specifically requested during a tax audit.

Bottom line:
Assume your crypto transactions are discoverable through centralized exchanges and payment records. Accurate reporting is the best strategy.

How Is Crypto Taxed in Singapore?

The method of taxation for cryptocurrency in Singapore depends on several key factors:

1. Nature of Activity: Private Investment vs. Business

  • Holding or casually trading crypto as a private individual: No tax on capital gains, swaps, or asset appreciation.
  • Frequent or structured trading/business activity: Profits taxed as business income under prevailing rates.

IRAS Assessment Criteria

Assessment Factor

Indicates Investor

Indicates Business

Trading frequencyInfrequentRegular, high volume
Holding periodLong-termShort-term
OrganizationCasual, personalSystematic, business-like
Marketing/promotionNonePresent
Purchase intentionInvestmentResale/profit
  • No strict numeric threshold defines “business” status; the IRAS reviews cases individually.

2. Type of Token Involved

  • Digital Payment Tokens (DPTs):

Bitcoin, Ethereum, Litecoin, Ripple, etc., are exempt from GST in transactions. Most common cryptos fit this category.

  • Non-DPT Tokens:

NFTs, some utility tokens, or specialized tokens may not be GST-exempt. Check the IRAS website for up-to-date lists.

3. Types of Income

Crypto Earned as Salary or for Providing Services

Any cryptocurrency earned in exchange for goods or services—whether paid by an employer or received as a freelancer—is considered SGD-income at fair market value on the day received and taxed as ordinary income.

Crypto Mining Rewards

  • Hobby mining: No tax on the value of newly minted coins or later sales.
  • Mining as a business: Profits and rewards are taxed as business income.

Staking and Lending Rewards

If your combined staking and lending rewards exceed S$300 in a year, those earnings become subject to income tax. Below this threshold, rewards are generally not taxed.

Crypto Income Source

Tax Free (≤ S$300/yr)

Taxable (> S$300/yr)

Staking rewardsYesYes
Lending rewards (interest)YesYes
Mining (hobby)YesN/A

Example

If you stake Solana and earn $250 SGD for the whole year, it’s tax-free. If you earn $350 SGD, the full amount is taxable as miscellaneous or ‘other’ income.

DeFi Activity

While regulatory clarity is still emerging worldwide, income received from decentralized finance (DeFi) platforms—such as yield farming, liquidity provision, and interest earned—is treated according to the same principles. If you exceed the S$300 threshold from these sources, declare the total as income.

Singapore Income Tax Rate

Singapore’s personal income tax rates are progressive. For individuals with business income—including professional crypto traders—these are the official rates for 2025:

Chargeable Income (SGD)

Tax Rate

Cumulative Tax (SGD)

First $20,0000%0
Next $10,0002%$200
Next $10,0003.5%$550
Next $40,0007%$3,350
Next $40,00011.5%$7,950
Next $40,00015%$13,950
Next $40,00018%$21,150
Next $40,00019%$28,750

Next $180,00022%$84,550
Next $500,00023%$199,550
Amount above $1,000,00024%
  • Non-residents pay a flat 24% tax rate on most income unless stricter provisions apply.

GST (Goods and Services Tax)

  • 8% in 2025; applies to non-DPT tokens and related transaction fees.

Filing and Payment Deadlines

  • Financial year: 1 January – 31 December
  • Individual tax return deadlines: 15 April (paper filing), 18 April (e-filing) each year

Crypto Losses in Singapore

Are Crypto Losses Deductible?

Generally, crypto-related losses cannot be claimed as a capital loss deduction unless you’re operating as a business.

Scenario Table: Crypto Loss Deductibility

Loss Source

Investor

Business/Trader

Capital loss on asset salesNot allowedAllowed
DeFi/Protocol hack lossNot allowedAllowed
Trading fee lossesNot allowedAllowed
Loss due to scamNot allowedLikely Allowed

\*Business losses are deductible against business income if you meet the IRAS definition of carrying on a trading business.

Example: Individual vs. Business

  • Individual: Anna buys Chainlink for $1,000, sells for $100, loses $900. She cannot claim this loss on her tax return.
  • Business/Trader: Wei operates a trading business. If he incurs verified crypto losses in the course of business, these may offset other business income in the same tax year.

Record-Keeping

Even if you can’t claim losses as an individual, detailed records will help if your activities are ever reviewed for “business” classification or if you have mixed income status.

Defi Tax in Singapore

DeFi—short for Decentralized Finance—encompasses everything from yield farming and staking to lending, borrowing, and liquidity provision on decentralized protocols. Here’s how DeFi activity is taxed in Singapore:

Earning Interest, Rewards, or Incentives

  • If your annual DeFi rewards (including yield farming, staking, lending) exceed S$300, you must report all DeFi earnings as income.
  • Income is assessed based on the SGD value at receipt date.

Swapping and Trading on DEXs

  • Pure swaps from one token to another on a DEX (with no realized income or fee earnings) are considered capital transactions for individuals, hence not taxed.
  • If swaps are part of a business or structured, recurring trading activity, profits may be taxed as business income.

Providing Liquidity

  • Any rewards (tokens, fees, or share of trading fee income) received from liquidity provision on a decentralized exchange count toward your annual S$300 threshold and are taxed as miscellaneous income if the threshold is exceeded.

DeFi Activity

Tax-Free for Individuals (≤ S$300)

Taxable Above S$300/yr

Earned interest (lending)YesYes
Staking rewardsYesYes
Liquidity mining/yield farmYesYes
Token swaps (no fees earned)YesNo

Examples

  • Ava earns $250 in USDT through Aave interest—tax-free.
  • Li earns $1,000 in liquidity mining rewards from Uniswap pools—all of it is taxable as income.

Frequently Asked Questions

What cryptocurrencies are subject to tax in Singapore?

All cryptocurrencies can potentially be subject to tax in Singapore under certain circumstances. However, for individual investors, gains from buying, holding, or selling major tokens like Bitcoin, Ethereum, and most Altcoins are generally not taxed. Tax applies if you earn crypto through work, staking, or as part of a business, regardless of which token you receive.

How do I calculate my crypto tax liability?

Your method depends on your activity. For private investors, most gains aren’t taxed, so complex calculation is usually unnecessary. If you earn crypto income (e.g., services, staking above S$300), convert the value to SGD at receipt and declare that amount. Business traders should aggregate all gains/losses and include them within normal income tax calculations according to the progressive tax rates. Tools like the WEEX Tax Calculator can automate much of this work.

What records should I keep for crypto taxes?

Maintain detailed records for all crypto transactions, including:

  • Dates of each transaction
  • Type of activity (buy, sell, trade, earn, stake, mine, etc.)
  • Token details and wallet addresses
  • Value in SGD at transaction time
  • Counterparty (exchange/wallet details)

These records help ensure compliance and clarify your classification if IRAS reviews your account.

When are crypto taxes due in Singapore?

Crypto taxes are reported on your annual personal or business income tax filings. The Singapore tax year runs from January 1 to December 31. Deadlines are April 15 for paper filings and April 18 for e-filing. Mark these dates to avoid late penalties.

What happens if I don’t report crypto taxes?

Failing to report taxable crypto activity can result in penalties, interest, and—in severe cases—prosecution under Singapore’s tax laws. IRAS has mechanisms to review exchange records and wallet transactions. Even if you believe your crypto activity is mostly exempt, always ensure accurate reporting, especially for staking, business, or income-derived earnings.

 


 

Understanding your crypto tax obligations in Singapore is crucial for protecting your profits and ensuring regulatory compliance. By following the IRAS rules, keeping thorough records, and leveraging robust tools like the WEEX Tax Calculator, you can confidently navigate your tax year in 2025 and enjoy the benefits of investing in one of the world’s most progressive crypto environments.

Futures trading is a type of derivatives trading where participants agree to buy or sell an asset at a predetermined future price and date. In crypto, traders speculate on the future price of assets like Bitcoin or Ethereum without holding them.

Key advantages over spot trading include:

The ability to profit from both rising (long positions) and falling (short positions) markets.The use of financial leverage to control large positions with a smaller capital outlay.In 2026, perpetual futures contracts—which have no expiry date and use a funding rate mechanism to track spot prices—are the industry standard for retail traders.

Read More: User Guide: What Are Perpetual Futures Contracts?

How Crypto Futures Trading Work?

Trading futures requires an understanding of core mechanics. Traders open positions by depositing initial margin, which acts as collateral, not the full trade value.

Essential concepts include:

Leverage: A multiplier that increases both potential profits and losses (e.g., 10x leverage means a $100 margin controls a $1,000 position).Margin Requirements: Maintenance margin levels determine when a liquidation occurs if the trade moves against you.Funding Rates: Periodic payments exchanged between long and short traders to keep the perpetual contract price aligned with the spot market.

Mastering these mechanics is fundamental before engaging in futures markets.

What Is Brevis (BREV) and How Does It Work?

When building decentralized applications (DApps), developers face two primary constraints: smart contracts cannot natively access historical blockchain data or information from external blockchains without introducing trusted oracles. Furthermore, executing complex computational tasks directly on mainnets like Ethereum is prohibitively expensive.

Brevis directly addresses these limitations of scalability and interoperability by introducing a Zero-Knowledge (ZK) Coprocessor. Functioning like a GPU for a blockchain, Brevis operates as a co-processor, handling intensive data computation off-chain. This enables developers to create powerful, data-driven DApps that can securely utilize any on-chain data across multiple blockchains, all without adding new trust assumptions to their applications.

What Is Brevis (BREV)?

Brevis (BREV) is the native utility and governance asset of the Brevis network, designed to align incentives among all ecosystem participants.

Token Utility:

Proof Fees: Developers pay fees in BREV to request and verify proofs within the ProverNet system.Staking and Security: Network provers are required to stake BREV tokens as collateral. Malicious behavior or service failure can result in slashing, securing network integrity.Governance: Brevis (BREV) holders can participate in protocol governance, influencing parameters and future development.Future Gas Token: Upon migration to its dedicated rollup, BREV is slated to become the native gas token for the Brevis network.Brevis (BREV) Tokenomics

Brevis has a fixed total supply of 1,000,000,000 (1 billion) Brevis (BREV). The allocation strategy prioritizes long-term ecosystem growth and community engagement.

Token Allocation:

Ecosystem Growth: 37%Community Incentives: 32.20%Team: 20%Seed Investors: 10.80%How Does Brevis Work?

Brevis fundamentally separates computation from verification. It offloads heavy data-processing workloads from the main blockchain to its specialized environment. After processing, it returns a succinct cryptographic proof that verifiably attests to the correctness of the result, which the main chain can efficiently validate.

The ZK Coprocessor Model

Within this model, a smart contract on a main chain (such as Ethereum) submits a request for a specific computation or data query. Brevis's off-chain system processes this request and generates a Zero-Knowledge Proof (ZKP). This proof is then submitted back to the requesting contract. The contract can cryptographically verify the proof's validity in a fraction of the time and cost it would take to re-execute the computation, ensuring trustless correctness.

ProverNet

The operational core of Brevis is ProverNet, a decentralized network of participants who compete to generate proofs for computation requests. This marketplace ensures that proof generation remains decentralized, secure, and cost-efficient. Initially deployed on the Base blockchain, the architecture is designed for a future migration to a dedicated Brevis rollup, further optimizing performance and sovereignty.

Key Features of Brevis

Brevis enhances Web3 development through several key architectural innovations:

Omnichain Data Access: DApps can seamlessly query and utilize verified on-chain data from any supported blockchain. This unlocks novel use cases like cross-chain reputation systems, historical financial analysis, and sophisticated multi-chain DeFi strategies.Trust-Free Verification: By relying on mathematically verifiable ZK proofs, Brevis removes the need to trust any intermediary. The destination blockchain cryptographically verifies the proof's integrity, not the prover's reputation.High-Performance zkVM: The platform utilizes the Pico zkVM, engineered for high-speed proof generation. This efficiency is critical for supporting real-time DApps that require low-latency data processing.Conclusion

Brevis represents a pivotal advancement in modular blockchain infrastructure. By providing a ZK-powered coprocessor, it liberates smart contracts from their inherent data and computation limits. Developers gain the ability to build more intelligent, interconnected, and powerful DApps that can leverage the full breadth of blockchain data, all while maintaining the core tenets of security and decentralization.

Key influences include:

Listing criteria: Expedited processes increase variety but may raise risks; stricter vetting limits availability.Regulatory compliance: Regional laws directly impact which assets can be offered.Liquidity management: Maintaining active markets for numerous tokens requires strong market-making.Strategic focus: Exchanges centered on altcoins typically list more assets, while conservative platforms prioritize stability.

WEEX Trade to Earn Phase 2: Trading Discipline and Risk Management in Uncertain Crypto Futures Markets

As 2026 begins, many traders are facing a familiar frustration: the market keeps moving, but clarity doesn’t. Short, volatile swings in Bitcoin and Ethereum put pressure even on experienced traders, often leading to hesitation, overtrading, or reactive decisions that undermine longer-term strategy.

In this environment, the real challenge isn’t just predicting market direction — it’s managing one’s own reactions. Emotional responses can magnify minor price movements, especially in leveraged futures trading. Consistency, however, is often overlooked.

This is where structured reinforcement becomes relevant. Initiatives such as WEEX Trade to Earn emphasize consistent participation, encouraging discipline without influencing individual trading decisions.

From Emotional Reaction to Risk Management

When markets lack clear direction, emotional reactions often step in. Left unchecked, they tend to influence execution rather than strategy, adding unnecessary friction in volatile conditions.

This is where risk management becomes essential — not as theory, but as a practical framework for maintaining consistency in uncertain markets. In crypto, volatility is inevitable, but disciplined risk management helps reduce emotional errors and support more stable execution over time.

Core principles include:

Setting realistic position sizes and stop-loss levelsDiversifying exposure across multiple assetsAvoiding impulsive trades driven by short-term price swings

A structured approach does not eliminate volatility, but it helps traders navigate it with greater discipline and consistency. How does this translate into real trading behavior during volatile moments?

Staying Calm in Volatile Markets: Real Scenarios

Consider a day when Bitcoin moves 3% within an hour. Traders reacting emotionally may exit positions too early or enter impulsively. If you’ve ever closed a trade, only to watch price move exactly as planned, this scenario likely feels familiar. Traders who stick to their plan, however, maintain execution discipline and avoid unnecessary losses.

In this context, programs that offer incremental recognition for consistent execution can serve as a subtle psychological buffer. By reinforcing measured decision-making, they support disciplined behavior without interfering with the underlying strategy.

This approach is particularly valuable for moderate leverage users or those exploring algorithmic strategies, where structured reinforcement helps reduce stress and maintain rational execution during short-term swings.

A Subtle Advantage: Trade to Earn Phase 2

Structured reinforcement can play a meaningful role in helping traders maintain discipline during volatile periods. By offering small, visible incentives tied to consistent execution, such mechanisms encourage steadier behavior and reduce the tendency to react impulsively to short-term market fluctuations.

One example of this approach is WEEX Trade to Earn Phase 2. The program does not alter trading strategies or risk exposure, but provides tiered recognition in WXT tokens for consistent futures participation — reinforcing disciplined execution without interfering with decision-making.

The value lies not in the reward itself, but in its psychological effect: supporting composure, confidence, and adherence to a well-defined trading plan during periods of market uncertainty.

Key Takeaways for Rational Trading

To navigate early 2026 markets more effectively:

Treat price swings as signals, not threatsAdhere to pre-defined risk limits and execution rulesSupport consistent execution through structured, participation-based mechanismsPrioritize long-term consistency over avoiding every short-term loss

These principles are increasingly reflected in exchange-level mechanisms that emphasize consistency and disciplined participation, rather than short-term risk-taking.

By combining sound strategy with emotional control, traders can navigate volatile conditions with greater clarity, resilience, and execution quality over time.

Conclusion: Consistency Over Reaction

In range-bound markets, consistency depends less on prediction and more on execution quality. Effective risk control and emotional discipline are essential — particularly in leveraged futures trading.

Mechanisms like WEEX Trade to Earn Phase 2 reinforce disciplined participation through structured recognition, supporting composure without altering strategy or increasing risk.

Over time, progress comes not from trading more, but from executing calmly, minimizing emotional errors, and allowing consistency to compound.

What is Bitcoin OTC and How to Buy BTC OTC With PKR on WEEX Exchange?

Bitcoin remains the cornerstone of the cryptocurrency market, prized by individual and institutional investors alike. For those looking to trade significant amounts of BTC with fiat currency, over-the-counter trading provides a powerful and efficient channel. This guide explains Bitcoin OTC crypto, details how an OTC desk works, and walks you through trading BTC with Pakistani Rupees (PKR) on the WEEX OTC platform.

What is the Bitcoin OTC Crypto?

Bitcoin OTC (Over-The-Counter) trading is the direct, private purchase or sale of BTC between two parties, facilitated outside of public exchange order books. These transactions are typically arranged through specialized brokers or dedicated OTC desks that connect large buyers and sellers directly.

The primary appeal of Bitcoin OTC trading is its ability to execute large-volume orders without causing adverse market movement. On a standard exchange, a substantial BTC buy order can create price slippage, increasing the average cost as the order fills. OTC trading eliminates this risk by allowing parties to agree on a fixed price privately. This ensures price certainty, minimizes market impact, and offers a higher degree of privacy, making it the method of choice for institutions, high-net-worth individuals, and funds managing sizable Bitcoin portfolios.

What is a Crypto OTC Trading Exchange?

A Crypto OTC trading exchange, often referred to as an OTC desk, is a specialized platform that facilitates private, bilateral transactions. Unlike public spot markets where prices are set by a visible order book, an OTC desk provides clients with a firm, fixed quote for their specific trade size, which does not fluctuate during execution.

This model offers three key strategic benefits. First, it serves as the fastest fiat on-ramp, enabling rapid conversion of traditional bank capital into crypto to capitalize on immediate market opportunities. Second, it guarantees zero slippage; the final execution price is locked in at the quote, protecting large orders from intra-second volatility. Third, robust OTC platforms support multi-currency and multi-payment infrastructures, seamlessly bridging local banking systems—like Pakistan's—with global digital asset liquidity for smooth cross-border settlements.

What is WEEX OTC Crypto Trading Exchange?
