Hi,
A friend sent me FIAT to purchase BTC, which I immediately sent to his wallet after I purchased it (this was a one off as he did not have access to an exchange at the time). I am considering how this should be logged in Koinly?
Should I:
-
Leave it as a withdrawal, in which case I would incur the capital gains/ losses at the moment of withdrawal? I would actually benefit from the capital loss in my case, but this wouldn’t be correct as I would benefiting from CGT tax relief and I did not pay for this transaction.
-
Set it as a GIFT? But I understand under UK CGT laws this is also subject to CGT as he is a friend?
-
Delete the transactions from my history altogether?
Also would any of the above options affect how my friend would declare is tax? He would obviously want to use the amount he paid to offset his tax.
I would appreciate your help on this matter thanks.
