How to Calculate Crypto Profit

Cost = coins × buy price × (1 + buy fee %)
Proceeds = coins × sell price × (1 − sell fee %)
Profit = proceeds − cost; return = profit ÷ cost × 100

If you know the dollars spent instead of the coins, coins = amount spent ÷ (buy price × (1 + buy fee %)).

Tips

Exchanges charge fees differently (flat, percentage, or a spread built into the price), so check your trade confirmation. Network (gas) fees for moving coins aren’t included. In the US, crypto is taxed as property: gains on coins held a year or less are short-term, over a year long-term. Not tax advice.
