The Crypto Tax Hack Nobody Talks About – Wyoming + Cyprus = 0% tax

If you’re building a crypto project, stacking long-term gains, or just sick of governments taxing your every trade, listen up: there’s a clean, legal and affordable path to 0% crypto tax. And it doesn’t involve Panama, the Cayman Islands, or some overpriced offshore consultant.

It involves two real jurisdictions: Wyoming (USA) and Cyprus (EU). Let’s break it down.

Why Wyoming is Crypto Heaven

Most people don’t realize this, but the state of Wyoming has gone all-in on crypto. Not only have they passed special blockchain laws, they treat crypto like property, not currency – which has major legal advantages.

And here’s where it gets juicy:

• Wyoming has zero state income tax

• You can form a Wyoming LLC from anywhere in the world

• If your LLC income comes from outside the US (like online crypto trading, DeFi, or consulting), you owe zero federal tax too

• Crypto held in the LLC is treated as property under local law

So if you’re a non-resident alien (i.e., not a US citizen or green card holder), you can legally pay 0% U.S. tax on your crypto-related earnings through a Wyoming LLC.

Cost? Around $100–200 to form, and about $60–90/year to maintain. That’s it.

It’s one of the cleanest, simplest structures in the world. No secrecy. No red flags.

Why Cyprus is the Non-Dom Paradise

Cyprus is part of the EU, but plays by its own (very smart) tax rules. It’s one of the best bases for digital nomads, crypto traders, founders and remote workers.

The trick is the Non-Domiciled Tax Resident ("non-dom") status. If you get it, here’s what you enjoy:

• 0% tax on dividends, capital gains (except Cyprus real estate), and interest

• No wealth tax, no inheritance tax, no bullshit

• Only need to spend 60 days per year in Cyprus (not 183)

• Can spend up to 182 days anywhere else

• Full access to EU banking and infrastructure

And yes – dividends paid from your Wyoming LLC to your Cyprus account are completely tax-free under non-dom rules.

Cost? About $1,000–1,500 to register and structure things. Done.

Combine Them = 0% Global Tax

Here’s the kicker: if you combine the two:

1. Run your crypto activities through a Wyoming LLC

2. Get paid as the owner (or via dividends)

3. Live (or become non-dom) in Cyprus

Your income is:

• 0% taxed in the US (because you’re a non-resident and income is foreign-sourced)

• 0% taxed in Cyprus (because it’s foreign-sourced dividends and you’re non-dom)

You now have:

• A legal structure in a crypto-friendly U.S. state

• EU banking, access and legitimacy via Cyprus

• Global personal freedom as a non-dom

All without shady tax havens or paying $10,000+ to consultants.

Compared to offshore trusts etc?

Setting up a trust in places like the Cook Islands can easily cost $20,000+, with thousands in annual fees. Good luck managing that as an early-stage builder.

Fancy Tax Firms?

Many crypto tax planners charge $5,000–20,000+ just to tell you what you now know.

Panama / BVI / Belize?

Sure, they work. But they’re not EU-friendly, not bank-friendly, and often raise compliance red flags.

Who Is This For?

This strategy is ideal for:

• Crypto traders (HODL or DeFi)

• Founders building Web3 products

• Digital nomads tired of tax headaches

• Solo devs, designers, or consultants with online income

It’s not about hiding – it’s about optimizing. Legally. Transparently. Sustainably.
