How is BNB taxed in Canada?

In Canada, the CRA treats cryptocurrency as a commodity rather than a currency. Selling, trading, or spending BNB triggers a capital gain or loss — 50% of which is taxable as income at your marginal rate. If you trade BNB frequently or as a business, the CRA may treat profits as 100% taxable business income. Keep detailed records of every transaction, including date, amount, fair market value in CAD, and counterparty.

About BNB

The native token of the Binance exchange and BNB Chain ecosystem.

BNB is the cryptocurrency launched by Binance in 2017 to power its exchange ecosystem and the BNB Chain (formerly Binance Smart Chain). Originally an ERC-20 token on Ethereum, BNB migrated to its own blockchain. The token gives holders trading-fee discounts on Binance and is the gas currency for BNB Chain — a fast, cheap, EVM-compatible network used heavily for DeFi and gaming.

BNB is used to pay transaction fees on the BNB Chain, settle trading-fee discounts on the Binance exchange, participate in Binance Launchpad token sales, and stake for validator rewards. Binance has performed periodic token burns since launch, reducing supply over time.
