I've heard that cryptocurrency transactions are often anonymous and difficult to trace, so I was wondering if I could gift crypto to avoid paying taxes. After all, if the government can't track the transactions, they won't be able to tax them, right? But I'm also worried that this might be considered tax evasion or some other illegal activity. So, what's the best way to approach this? Can I gift crypto without running into any legal issues?

Gifting crypto currency to individuals other than your spouse or civil partner can have tax implications. This is because when they dispose of the crypto currency, you may generate a capital gain.
