Bitcoin Cash (BCH) is a cryptocurrency that was created on August 1, 2017, when a group of Bitcoin developers and miners executed a hard fork of the Bitcoin blockchain at block 478,558. The fork was driven by a fundamental disagreement over how to scale Bitcoin: one camp wanted to increase the block...
💚 Bitcoin Cash tip: BCH forked from Bitcoin in August 2017 over a block size dispute. BCH uses 32 MB blocks vs Bitcoin''s ~1 MB, enabling more transactions per block and lower fees (typically under $0.01). If you held Bitcoin before block 478,558 (August 1, 2017), you automatically received an equal amount of BCH.

Enter your total investment in USD — the total amount you spent to buy BCH.
Enter your buy price — BCH typically trades between $100 and $1,650. If you received BCH from the 2017 fork, your cost basis is $0 (the value at receipt is treated as ordinary income).
Enter your sell price — the current or target price per BCH. Use the live market price for unrealised P&L.
Enter your exchange fees — most major exchanges charge 0.1%–0.5% per trade for BCH.
Select your holding period — under 1 year for short-term ordinary income rates, over 1 year for long-term capital gains rates.
Select your tax rate to see your estimated after-tax profit. All results update instantly as you type.
Example: You invested $1,000 in BCH at $100.00 per BCH and sold at $1,650.00. BCH purchased = $1,000 ÷ $100 = 10 BCH. Gross proceeds = 10 × $1,650 = $16,500. Buy fee (0.1%) = $1.00. Sell fee (0.1%) = $16.50. Cost basis = $1,001. Net proceeds = $16,483.50. Net profit = $15,482.50. ROI = 1,546.70%. Break-even price = $100.20. At 22% short-term tax rate: tax = $3,406.15, after-tax profit = $12,076.35.
