Reporting Gemini Trading Gains
Every crypto sale on Gemini is a taxable event. Your 1099-DA will show gross proceeds. You need to match this with your cost basis:
- Import your Gemini CSV into crypto tax software
- The software calculates FIFO or HIFO basis automatically
- Generates Form 8949 for each transaction
Gemini Earn and Staking Income
Income from Gemini Earn (now discontinued) and staking programs is taxed as ordinary income at fair market value when received. This appears on Form 1099-MISC.
You then also have a new cost basis in those earned coins. When you sell them later, any gain from the date received is a separate capital gain event.
Gemini Custody and ActiveTrader
All trading activity on Gemini, including the ActiveTrader pro interface, is subject to the same tax rules. High-frequency traders should use crypto tax software to handle hundreds of trades automatically.
International Users
Non-US Gemini users may receive different forms or no forms at all. However, you are still obligated to report crypto gains in your home country. Export your transaction history and use local tax rules.
