How do I add a hard fork to a manual widget?
01Answer
Here you go
If you are involved with a hard fork, you will receive new coins that must be entered in the affected widget. The acquisition costs always amount to zero. If you sell the new coins within one year of receiving them, you generate taxable income from speculative transactions. In contrast to hard forks, soft forks and token swaps are seen as a technical update that does not trigger a taxable event. Find out more about the taxation of hard forks in the help center section dedicated to tax info.
