This is why we have partnered with companies like Cadena to create a video series that covers all bases for users. Crypto Tax 101 is the ultimate resource for anyone who wants to better their knowledge and understanding of how crypto tax in Australia works.
“Working with Harry and the team at Cadena Legal has been great for the Crypto Tax 101 project – their industry insights and deep experience have been very helpful for constructing a series that can cover the basics around tax reporting and obligations in Australia.” said Liam (Senior Marketing Specialist, Binance).
The team at Cadena Legal have collaborated with us to put together a two-part guide to Advanced Crypto Tax with Harry Dell.
