Gifts of Cryptocurrency

Cryptocurrency can be a tax-efficient and innovative way to support the causes you care about. As digital assets continue to grow in popularity, many donors are incorporating cryptocurrency into their broader philanthropic, financial, and estate planning strategies.

Why Give Cryptocurrency?

Donating appreciated cryptocurrency directly to charity may provide greater tax advantages than selling the asset and contributing cash proceeds. Depending on the structure of the gift, donors may be able to avoid capital gains taxes while supporting long-term charitable goals. 

Potential Benefits of Donating Cryptocurrency: 

  • Bypass gains on donated units  
  • Receive an income tax deduction for the value of the donation  
  • Maximize your charitable impact with a tax-free sale.
