crypto_gains_fifo
Calculate crypto capital gains (FIFO) per SA tax year
Calculates South African capital gains and losses on crypto from a list of buys, sells, crypto-to-crypto swaps, spends, gifts and crypto income, using first-in-first-out (SARS accepts FIFO or specific identification; weighted average is not allowed). Returns each disposal's proceeds, base cost and gain, totals per tax year (1 March – end February), income to declare, and holdings left with their base cost. Optionally estimates the tax per year.

crypto_capital_or_revenue
Indicate whether crypto gains are capital or revenue
Gives a reasoned indication of whether a South African taxpayer's crypto gains are likely capital (CGT, 40% inclusion) or revenue (fully taxed as income), using the factors SARS and the courts weigh: intention, holding period, trading frequency, how it is funded and whether it is run like a business. An indicator for discussion, not a ruling.
