How to buy Chiliz in Canada
Is CHZ a good investment in Canada?
CHZ coins were released to the market in 2018. But it didn’t have any price until July 2019, when it started to become more popular among sports fans. The initial price of CHZ was $0.02, and it didn’t change for one year. Then it had a price jump in 2021 and suddenly reached its highest value of $0.89. The rest of the year passed with an average price of $0.50. Like most cryptocurrencies, 2022 wasn’t that much great for CHZ owners. Its price fluctuated a lot, but never reached that high to set a record. It ended the year with a price of $0.10.
Cryptocurrency investors often want to know what the cryptocurrency's future holds. But the future is unpredictable, especially in the volatile world of cryptocurrencies. However, to make it easier to decide about buying a coin, analysts and crypto experts analyze the past and current situation of the crypto market and give price predictions, which can be useful but should not be the only factor you pick to decide on buying crypto. They think the CHZ price might finally get higher than $1 by 2028 and would rise as high as $3 by 2030.

According to the CRA tax guide, you’re not taxed when you buy crypto with fiat, like Canadian Dollars. This said, even though you don’t pay tax, it’s still really important you keep good records of your crypto transactions so you can keep a detailed account of your cost basis. This lets you calculate accurate crypto gains and losses when you later dispose of your crypto assets. But note that according to the above-mentioned tax guide, buying crypto with another crypto is subject to Capital Gains Tax. The CRA views this as a disposition, meaning you’re getting rid of one asset. It doesn’t matter that you’re using it to buy another.
According to the CRA tax guideline, since cryptocurrency is viewed as a capital asset, when you dispose of it by selling it, swapping it, spending it or gifting it, you’ll owe Capital Gains Tax on any profit you make.

According to the mentioned guideline, you won’t pay Capital Gains Tax on the entire proceeds when you sell, swap, spend or gift your cryptocurrency, but only the profits from it. Also note that you’ll only pay Capital Gains Tax on half your net capital gain each financial year in Canada.
