Crypto capital-gains tax in Tennessee

Tennessee has no state income tax on wages or capital gains for tax year 2025. Its former Hall Tax on interest and dividends was fully repealed as of 2021, so investment income is also untaxed. The state relies on one of the nation's highest combined sales tax burdens (7% state rate plus local rates) in place of an income tax.

Common questions

How is crypto taxed in Tennessee?
At the federal level, crypto is property and gains are taxed as short- or long-term capital gains. At the state level, Tennessee imposes no state tax on crypto capital gains; you owe only federal capital-gains tax.
Does Tennessee have a lower rate for long-term crypto gains?
Tennessee has no state income tax, so there's no separate state rate at all — only the federal 0/15/20% long-term rates apply.
