  When it comes to long term capital gains tax on digital assets in 2021, it's important to understand the potential deductions that may be available to you. One deduction that may apply is the cost basis of your digital assets. This refers to the original purchase price of the assets, and it can be used to offset your capital gains. For example, if you purchased a digital asset for $100 and later sold it for $200, your capital gain would be $100. However, if you have a cost basis of $50, you would only be taxed on the $50 gain. Another deduction to consider is any transaction fees or expenses incurred during the buying or selling process. These expenses can also be deducted from your capital gains. It's always a good idea to consult with a tax professional to ensure you're taking advantage of all available deductions and properly reporting your digital asset gains.
