Crypto assets are a digital form of money, which has proven to be a popular complement to “real” money. Crypto assets can be used on different platforms to pay for services or simply as a store of value in the given crypto instrument.
Platforms based on crypto assets are generally structured without a central owner – they remain stable due to their decentralized customer base. For now, crypto assets acquired by clients by LHV cannot be used on platforms to pay for services or make transfers. The best known decentralized crypto asset is currently Bitcoin.

For private individuals trading in crypto-assets, it is worth keeping in mind that the way crypto-assets are taxed depends on when they were acquired and on whether they were acquired using funds held in an investment account or in an ordinary account.
For crypto-assets bought through LHV from 18.05.2026 onwards, you can defer your income tax liability until the point at which the gains are withdrawn, by using the investment account system. If crypto-assets are acquired using funds from an ordinary account, income tax must be paid in the year following the year in which the gain was earned, provided that transactions in financial assets (i.e. both crypto-assets and traditional securities such as shares, bonds and funds) have resulted in an overall gain. If the overall result is a loss, the loss can also be declared in order to potentially reduce the tax liability in future years.
Crypto-assets acquired through LHV up to and including 17.05.2026 do not fall under the investment account system, and any gains from them must be declared as gains from the transfer of property — with loss-making transactions not being eligible for offset.
