What’s the beat way to transfer capital from the markets to crypto without paying hefty taxes? I have a fair amount invested in index funds that I’d like to move into BTC and ETH without getting slammed next April

If the gains are from money invested over a year it’s cap gains instead of normal income. There’s no way to beat taxes.

In-kind Transfer ETFs to IBKR and take out 20%-30% margin at like 2% interest to invest in crypto and pay it off slowly with future cash flow. IBKR also allows crypto trading now.

That’s one way to avoid taxes and still use some of your money.

Interactive Brokers. It’s a pretty large brokerage but not know by everyone. You can search Reddit for context as well

There are a lot of advanced features that can make the ui confusion but they also introduced IBKR lite last year which is their simplified version you may want to check out

Sell your index funds and buy BTC and ETH. Sell BTC and ETH on a red day below your buying price to offset the capital gains from the index funds. No capital gains no tax.

Borrow against your index fund account. You’ll probably get a good rate of 3% or less, compared to 30% tax on gains, and invest that in crypto.
