    Calculating capital gains tax for your digital currency trades in Nevada can be a bit confusing, but here's a simple method. First, determine the purchase price of the digital currency and any fees associated with the trade. Next, determine the fair market value of the digital currency at the time of sale. Subtract the purchase price from the sale price to calculate your capital gain. If you held the digital currency for less than a year, it will be considered a short-term capital gain and taxed at your ordinary income tax rate. If you held it for more than a year, it will be considered a long-term capital gain and taxed at a lower rate. Remember to keep accurate records of your trades and consult with a tax professional for specific advice.
