    As an investor in Canada, you're required to report your cryptocurrency earnings and pay capital gains tax on any profits. The process of calculating the capital gains tax on your cryptocurrency earnings involves determining the cost basis of your holdings, which includes the purchase price and any associated fees. You'll also need to determine the fair market value of your cryptocurrency at the time of the sale. Subtracting the cost basis from the sale price will give you the capital gain, which is subject to taxation. The tax rate will depend on your income level and the length of time you held the cryptocurrency. It's important to keep accurate records of your transactions and consult with a tax professional to ensure compliance with the tax laws in Canada.
