Cake DeFi tax declaration: How to automate your tax report

Cake DeFi partners with Blockpit.

Using Blockpit to track your crypto asset investments can help you save time and money. By importing your data from Cake DeFi, Blockpit can quickly and accurately calculate a fully compliant tax report, giving you the information you need to make the best decisions for your portfolio.

Will Cake DeFi automatically deduct the tax for me?

Unfortunately, Cake DeFi currently does not automatically withhold your tax for you. If you transfer and trade between different exchanges or wallets, Cake DeFi would also have to estimate your acquisition costs. For the correct determination of your taxes, the later proof and the declaration of your taxes at the tax office, a complete and proper documentation of all transactions is therefore essential.
