🟣 Polygon tip: Polygon is rebranding its MATIC token to POL as part of the Polygon 2.0 upgrade. If you bought MATIC, your tokens will be automatically migrated to POL at a 1:1 ratio. This has no effect on your P&L calculation — prices are equivalent.

HOW TO USE

  1. 1

    Enter your total investment in USD — the total amount you spent to buy MATIC.

  2. 2

    Enter your buy price — the price per MATIC when you purchased. Early MATIC traded well below $0.10, so enter the full decimal e.g. 0.02 for two cents.

  3. 3

    Enter your sell price — the current or target price per MATIC. Use the live market price for unrealised P&L.

  4. 4

    Enter your exchange fees — most major exchanges charge 0.1%–0.5% per trade for MATIC.

  5. 5

    Select your holding period — under 1 year for short-term ordinary income rates, over 1 year for long-term capital gains rates.

  6. 6

    Select your tax rate to see your estimated after-tax profit. All results update instantly. Note: the MATIC to POL migration is a 1:1 non-taxable token swap — it does not trigger a taxable event.

WORKED EXAMPLE

Example: You invested $1,000 in MATIC at $0.02 per MATIC and sold at $2.92. MATIC purchased = $1,000 ÷ $0.02 = 50,000 MATIC. Gross proceeds = 50,000 × $2.92 = $146,000. Buy fee (0.1%) = $1.00. Sell fee (0.1%) = $146.00. Cost basis = $1,001. Net proceeds = $145,854. Net profit = $144,853. ROI = 14,470.83%. Break-even price = $0.020020. At 22% short-term tax rate: tax = $31,867.66, after-tax profit = $112,985.34.
