Crypto capital-gains tax in Maine

Maine has three inflation-indexed brackets (5.8%, 6.75%, 7.15%); for 2025 the top rate starts at $63,450 single / $126,900 married filing jointly, with a $15,000 / $30,000 standard deduction and a $5,150 personal exemption that phases out at high incomes. A 2% millionaire surtax enacted in Maine's 2026 budget applies to later tax years, not 2025.

Common questions

How is crypto taxed in Maine?
At the federal level, crypto is property and gains are taxed as short- or long-term capital gains. At the state level, Maine taxes crypto capital gains as ordinary income — the same rate as your wages, with no long-term discount.
Does Maine have a lower rate for long-term crypto gains?
No — unlike the federal system, Maine does not give long-term gains a preferential state rate; they're taxed the same as short-term gains.
