How to buy Solana in United Kingdom
Is Sol a good investment in United Kingdom?
To decide if buying solana is a good investment, first, take a look at its history. The official token of Solana, called SOL, was released in April 2020 with a price of $0.79 per coin. In only one year, its price mounted to $260 in November 2021. It was one of the most profitable investments for people who had bought this coin at its debut. However, like any other coin on the market, Solana had fluctuations too. Although it couldn’t reach higher than $260, it became stable for a while at the price of $30 in 2022. Solana had a drop to $12 in November 2022.
Although no one can guarantee a positive future for any cryptocurrency, many experts believe that the updates on the Solana roadmap may affect its future. Analysts have predicted the future of Solana for upcoming years and believe this coin may reach $70 by the end of 2030. Most of the experts in this field also claim it is better to think about a long-term investment while buying Solana. However, you should be aware that any incident may affect the future of a coin. Therefore, if you are a beginner in this world, it’s recommended to avoid putting all your money on a coin.
What is Solana ?
Solana is the name of the blockchain created in 2017. Very soon after its release, it became one of the fastest blockchain networks with 2700 transactions per second. This feature made Solana very popular among people in the cryptocurrency world. To make the network more efficient, like the Cardano network, Solana also uses the proof-of-stake (PoS) technology, which also helps the network become more sustainable and scalable than the previous blockchains. Fast transactions, low fees, and low environmental impact are the benefits of the Solana blockchain.
Is Solana legal to buy in United Kingdom
Yes. According to the definition of crypto assets provided by FCA (Financial Conduct Authority), crypto assets are cryptographically secured digital representations of value or contractual rights that use some type of distributed ledger technology (DLT) and can be transferred, stored or traded electronically. According to the consumers’ investment definition by FCA, buying, selling, investing and making payments through cryptocurrency is legal in the UK. But remember to check before you make a purchase, receive a payment or pay using crypto assets if the deployed crypto assets or services are regulated in the UK. An extensive report on UK’s crypto assets regulations is issued by the HM Treasury, Financial Conduct Authority and the Bank of England.
Is Solana taxed in United Kingdom
Yes. According to the tax authority of the U.K. government (HMRC) Crypto Assets Manual, cryptocurrency is taxable in the UK. HMRC are clear that crypto may be subject to both Capital Gains Tax and Income Tax depending on the specific transaction. According to the above-mentioned manual, if you’ve sold your crypto for more than you bought it, you’ll likely pay capital gains tax on the profit. For capital gains from crypto tax-free allowance, you'll pay 10% or 20% tax. If you’re trading huge amounts of crypto, HMRC will think you are a trader and ask you to pay income tax on trading, rather than capital gains taxes. For additional income from crypto over the personal allowance, you'll pay between 20% to 45% in tax. The exact amount you'll pay will depend on the transaction you've made, the tax that applies and the Income Tax band you fall into. See UK’s Crypto Assets Manual for Individuals for more information.
After you've bought Solana in United Kingdom
Like any other coin in the cryptocurrency world, there are lots of ways you can consume your coins. You can use SOL to purchase something on the internet; nevertheless, the seller should accept your coin. Therefore, if you want to use SOL coins to buy something, check the brands and companies that support SOL. Additionally, you can trade your coins with an NFT. If you don’t want to spend your SOL tokens, you can keep them as an investment. SOL is assumed to be a great long-term investment.
Meanwhile, since the cryptocurrency world is so volatile, it’s better to consider an exit point for your investment. It can be a price that you consider the right price for selling the coin. Moreover, you should always keep an eye on the price of SOL, read its whitepapers, and check what experts and analysts say about it on their social media.
