To wait for bankruptcy proceedings to conclude for a clearer picture of your losses and whether you'll be able to claim them.For Celsius users who lost crypto due to lending it on the platform, it's even more complicated. From the Skatteverket's perspective, as you lent crypto, you disposed of it at the point you transferred it to Celsius. Those who have lent their crypto assets to Celsius have thus disposed of the assets and must perform a capital gain calculation in their Income Tax Return. Instead of the crypto assets, they now have a claim on Celsius.To deduct a loss on a claim relating to Celsius, it is required, among other things, that the claim has been disposed of. A security is considered to be disposed of if the company that issued it has been declared bankrupt and is a limited company or a cooperative association. Since Celsius is undergoing corporate restructuring according to Chapter 11, the claim cannot be considered disposed of due to bankruptcy. If Celsius were to be declared bankrupt in the future, the Swedish Tax Agency will need to assess whether the claim against Celsius is considered a security issue by the company, but they'll only do this if Celsius is declared bankrupt.To calculate your capital gain, you need to start by knowing your cost basis. That is, how much your crypto cost you to acquire, plus any allowable fees.Once you know your cost basis, subtract your cost basis from the price you sold your crypto
