2. Nature of Our Service

BitcoinEx.ie is an independent information and comparison website. We provide general information about cryptocurrency exchanges, tax guidance and market data for Irish users. We are not a financial services provider, exchange, broker or tax advisor.

We strive to keep all information accurate and up to date. However, exchange fees, features and regulations can change without notice. Always verify information directly with the exchange or relevant authority before making decisions.

6. Tax Calculator

Our CGT calculator is provided as a general guide only and does not constitute tax advice. The calculator uses publicly available Revenue.ie guidelines but may not account for your specific circumstances. Always consult a qualified Irish tax advisor for your personal tax situation.

All content on BitcoinEx.ie including text, guides and code is the property of BitcoinEx.ie unless otherwise stated. Exchange logos and trademarks belong to their respective owners and are used for identification purposes only.
