Binance US is a digital asset exchange offering cryptocurrency trading services to users in the United States. The exchange is operated by Binance Ltd., a company based in Malta.
Binance US is a separate entity from Binance Ltd., and is not subject to the same regulatory oversight.
Binance US does not issue tax documents. However, users of the exchange are responsible for reporting their capital gains and losses to the IRS.
The exchange provides users with a trade history report that can be used to calculate capital gains and losses.
Capital gains and losses are taxed at different rates depending on the holding period. Short-term capital gains, which are gains on assets held for less than one year, are taxed at the same rate as ordinary income.
Long-term capital gains, which are gains on assets held for more than one year, are taxed at a lower rate.
Binance US users should consult with a tax advisor to determine how their gains and losses will be taxed.
