How we think about Filecoin at Evermore
Filecoin (FIL) is currently classified as a mid-cap cryptocurrency by market value. This is an established cryptocurrency but materially smaller and more volatile than the top-ten names. Position sizing matters: a drawdown of 70–90% from a prior high is not unusual for assets in this tier, which is why we size crypto by what a client can lose without derailing their plan.
How Filecoin is taxed in Canada
The Canada Revenue Agency treats cryptocurrency as a commodity, not currency. When you sell, trade, or spend Filecoin, you trigger a taxable event — typically a capital gain (50% of the gain is taxable) if you are an investor, or fully-taxable business income if the CRA considers your trading a business. Every disposition must be reported, including crypto-to-crypto trades.
Can you hold Filecoin in a TFSA or RRSP?
No. You cannot hold FIL directly inside a TFSA, RRSP, or other registered account — cryptocurrencies are not "qualified investments." Canadians who want tax-sheltered crypto exposure typically use a listed crypto ETF held inside a registered account instead, which changes the risk and fee profile considerably.
