FAQ — Hardware Wallets (Ledger, Trezor, BitBox02) & Hack / Scam Tax Write-Offs (Nederland)

Export your exchange withdrawal CSV alongside the matching on-chain receiving address and xpub/message signature proving continuous beneficial ownership.
How do I realize a tax loss on a dead or rugged token with zero exchange liquidity in Nederland?
Document the pool drain on-chain and check whether Belastingdienst accepts a negligible-value claim or requires an arms-length disposal/burn transaction prior to year-end.
