What is Tezos?

Tezos is a cryptocurrency built on the Tezos blockchain. It was created for self-amending smart contracts with on-chain governance and energy-efficient proof-of-stake.

The network allows you to:

upgrade the protocol through on-chain governance where bakers and delegators vote on proposed amendments, rnearn baking rewards by staking XTZ directly or delegating to a baker without locking funds, deploy smart contracts in multiple languages including Michelson and SmartPy with formal verification support

account_balance

These capabilities exist because traditional systems struggle with:

Contentious hard forks that split blockchain communities and fragment network effectsrnInability for token holders to participate in protocol governance without running infrastructurernLack of formal verification in smart contract platforms that leads to costly exploits

Why do people sell Tezos?

Tezos holders sell to convert baking (staking) rewards into fiat or to take profits after governance-driven upgrades attract new interest. Some holders exit after protocol amendments to rebalance toward other smart contract platforms. Others sell to fund participation in real-world asset tokenization projects on other chains.

Tax considerations when selling Tezos

In most jurisdictions, selling Tezos for fiat currency is considered a taxable event. Capital gains tax may apply based on the difference between your purchase price and the sale price. Baking rewards are typically taxable as income at the time they are received. Consult a tax professional for guidance specific to your country.
