Bitcoin has retraced roughly 30% from its all-time high, according to Bloomberg, creating a potential year-end tax-optimization window. Market advisers say this year’s tax-loss harvesting activity in digital assets could be more widespread than in prior cycles as investors reassess risk in crypto markets.
Year-to-date metrics show Bitcoin down about 5%, while the S&P 500 has advanced around 18%, underscoring a notable performance gap that may influence asset allocation for mixed portfolios, especially for those who entered Bitcoin near the October peak.
Tax-loss harvesting is the practice of selling assets at a loss to offset gains, potentially reducing tax liabilities. With equities rising and crypto pulling back, this approach is drawing renewed attention as part of disciplined year-end tax planning for crypto holders.
