FAQ
Is buying SKI a taxable event?
Buying SKI with fiat is not a taxable event. Swapping ETH for SKI usually IS a disposal of ETH and triggers capital gains on the ETH leg.
What about gas fees?
In most jurisdictions, gas fees are added to your cost basis (when buying) or deducted from proceeds (when selling). Keep transaction hashes for proof.
Best tax software?
Koinly, CoinTracker, and CoinLedger all support Base chain. They auto-import wallet history via your wallet address.
