How to buy Ethereum in Netherlands
Is ETH a good investment in Netherlands?
In its simplest definition, Ethereum is an open infrastructure based on blockchain technology on which decentralized computer programs can be run. The decentralization of Ethereum means that this system does not belong to anyone alone and it is not controlled by one or more specific people. Everyone can own this network and everyone can play a role in controlling it. Thanks to Ethereum's distributed and decentralized structure, once a program is implemented on the Ethereum network, it cannot be stopped or manipulated, even if the creator wants to.
Among the members of the digital currency community, the digital currency of the Ethereum network is also called Ethereum or Ether. Ether, like Bitcoin, is a digital currency that can easily transfer value. However, Ether's purpose is slightly different from Bitcoin's. This digital currency was created to pay for fees and as an incentive for contributors to continue working with Ethereum. Who would be willing to work as a miner or contributor to the network if Ether was not the key asset? This is why Ether is also called "the fuel of the Ethereum network". If Bitcoin is "digital gold", Ether is "digital oil".
What is Ethereum ?
The digital currency of the Ethereum network is called "Ether" and its abbreviated unit is ETH. This asset is considered the currency of the network as well as a way to pay fees and charges.
Is Ethereum legal to buy in Netherlands
According to The Dutch National Bank (DNB) all cryptocurrency transactions are legal in the Netherlands. However, cryptocurrencies are still not accepted as digital money. The Dutch National Bank is in charge of cryptocurrency regulations in the Netherlands. They prevent cryptocurrency from being used for illegal purposes such as money laundering or funding of criminal or terrorist activities. It is estimated that over 520 thousand people, 3.04% of Netherlands’ total population, currently own cryptocurrency.
Is Ethereum taxed in Netherlands
Yes. According to Netherland’s Money Laundering and Terrorist Financing Prevention Act (Wwft), all crypto assets of a private individual count as salary or income. There is no crypto capital gains tax in the Netherlands. Rather, crypto is taxed as an asset. According to the same document, if the taxable base value of your assets (crypto and non-crypto) is more than 50,000 EUR, you are subject to the net worth tax of 31%. This is a fixed percentage return assumed by the government.

FAQ
Frequently asked questions
Ether is a functional currency. As the amount and use and acceptance of Ether increases, the price will also increase. Ethereum can be used to make processes smarter and get the most out of it. The price of Ethereum will increase if Ethereum is accepted by more institutions and its popularity and use increase. In 2016, the value of each ether was less than one dollar, but for example, in 2020, which was the year when digital currencies flourished, the price of Ethereum increased by 200 times. In conclusion, Ethereum has a special place among digital currencies and a bright future is predicted for it. With updates coming in the near future, Ethereum will become faster and a more viable investment option. Investing in Ethereum may seem risky, but if all goes well, the returns on this investment might be impressive.
According to the website of the Dutch Government, if you submit your tax return too late or not at all, the Tax and Customs Administration will see this as undisguised capital and impose a fine. Before you receive a fine, the Tax and Customs Administration will send you a reminder and later probably a final notice. If you cannot submit your tax return in time, you can ask for a deferment.
Yes, you do. The Netherlands is different from many countries where cryptocurrency is only taxed when you sell, trade, spend or gift it. This is based on the Dutch tax office statement which assumes you make a return from your assets and tax you on this assumed return.
Officially, ETH has a minimum fractional number called a Wei. Each Wei equals 0.000000000000000001 ETH (10-18). But the minimum amount you are allowed to purchase is dependent upon your exchange’s minimum limit. Our exchange allows a minimum of $10.
According to Dutch tax office you are not charged tax for simply buying or selling crypto. Contrary to most other countries, you are not taxed when buying, selling, exchanging, or otherwise disposing of a cryptocurrency. It is taxed as an asset, so you are charged tax on the amount of savings and investments you hold at the beginning of the tax year.
To store Ether and Ethereum-based tokens, you need software or hardware called a "wallet". A wallet can be considered like a bank account that is used to store, receive and send money.
Ethereum software wallets are free and you can easily install them on mobile phones (Android and iOS) or PCs (Windows, Linux, and Mac). Some wallets are also web-based and can be accessed with internet browsers (such as Chrome). In contrast, hardware wallets, which are more secure, are physically available and must be purchased from reputable stores. It is necessary to take a backup copy of your wallet so that you can recover your funds if the wallet is deleted, the password is forgotten, or the device on which the wallet is installed is damaged.
