Your trusted source for modern financial news from Switzerland.
Switzerland offers cryptocurrency investors a unique advantage: no capital gains tax on private crypto trading. While staking rewards and mining income are taxed, profits from buying and selling digital assets remain tax-free. An annual wealth tax applies, but rates are modest compared to capital gains taxation elsewhere, making Switzerland exceptionally attractive for crypto holders.
Staking cryptocurrency offers passive income superior to traditional savings, with top 2025 options including Ethereum, Polkadot, and Cardano. Yields range from 3-15% APY, but investors should prioritize network security and long-term viability over headline returns. Success requires balancing yield generation with capital preservation while understanding underlying blockchain technology and risk tolerance.
