How Macau taxes crypto
Macau is generally regarded as a low-tax jurisdiction and does not typically impose a broad standalone capital gains tax on individuals. In this simplified comparison model, cryptocurrency investment gains for individual holders are shown at 0% for both short-term and long-term disposals. Treatment may differ if the activity is carried out as a business, professional trading operation, or another taxable commercial activity, so users should keep records and confirm current local guidance before relying on a final tax position.
The same rate applies however long you held.

This is the arithmetic the app runs on your device. Real liability depends on your residency, income, allowances and how the authority classifies your activity. Treat it as an estimate and check with a qualified adviser before you act.
