Crypto taxes are messy.
We Make Them Defensible.

Software alone isn't enough. We manually reconcile smart contracts, cross-chain bridges, and gas fees to build a defensible, audit-ready tax return. Don’t let reporting errors define the outcome.

The Software "Gap"

Tools like Koinly and CoinTracker are excellent aggregators, but they often misclassify internal transfers as taxable sales, miss cost basis from older wallets, or fail to detect rebase tokens. We fix the data layer before it ever hits a tax form.

Prepared for IRS Scrutiny

The IRS has significantly expanded its digital asset enforcement capabilities. We ensure your reporting matches the 1099-B and 1099-MISC forms the IRS receives from exchanges like Coinbase and Kraken, minimizing your audit risk profile.

Crypto CPA Services for DeFi, NFTs, and Active Traders

From simple HODLing to complex Yield Farming strategies, we handle the entire lifecycle of digital asset taxation.

📊 Centralized Exchanges (CEX)

We consolidate 1099-B forms and CSV exports from Coinbase, Binance.US, Kraken, Gemini, and Robinhood. We match transfers between exchanges to prevent "zero cost basis" errors that inflate your tax bill.

🦄 DeFi & DEXs

Uniswap, SushiSwap, Aave, Curve. We track Liquidity Provider (LP) tokens, separate income (rewards) from capital gains (price appreciation), and handle complex "wrap/unwrap" transactions correctly.

🖼️ NFTs & Metaverse

OpenSea, Blur, Magic Eden. We calculate minting costs vs. sales price, accounting for ETH/SOL gas fees to lower your capital gains. We also differentiate between "Collector" and "Creator" income types.

⛏️ Mining & Staking

Staking rewards are taxed as Ordinary Income upon receipt, then as Capital Gains upon sale. We track both taxable events accurately to ensure you don't pay tax twice on the same asset.

💸 Airdrops & Forks

Received ARB, OP, or UNI? Airdrops are taxable income at fair market value at the moment they hit your wallet. We use historical price data to establish the correct cost basis for these assets.

📉 Strategic Loss Harvesting

We identify your "underwater" assets. Selling them strategically can offset your other capital gains and up to $3,000 of W-2 income per year, potentially saving you thousands in actual tax dollars.

Supported Ecosystems & Wallets

Bitcoin (BTC) Ethereum (ETH) Solana (SOL) Polygon (MATIC) Arbitrum (ARB) Optimism (OP) Avalanche (AVAX) Cosmos (ATOM) Binance Smart Chain Cardano (ADA) Polkadot (DOT) Near Protocol Fantom (FTM) Algorand MetaMask Ledger Live Trezor Phantom Exodus Trust Wallet Coinbase Wallet Rabby

Crypto Tax Glossary

Understanding the tax implications of your on-chain activities.

Airdrop Taxed as Ordinary Income at the fair market value of the token at the time it lands in your wallet.
Cost Basis The original value of an asset for tax purposes (Purchase Price + Fees). You need this to calculate gains correctly.
Gas Fees Transaction fees on Ethereum etc. These can be added to your cost basis to lower your capital gains tax liability.
Hard Fork If a blockchain splits (like ETH -> ETHW), new coins received are generally taxed as ordinary income.
HODL (Long Term) Holding assets for >1 year qualifies you for Long Term Capital Gains tax rates (0%, 15%, or 20%), which are significantly lower than short-term rates.
NFT Royalties If you created an NFT, royalties are taxed as Ordinary Income (or Self-Employment Income), not Capital Gains.
Staking Rewards Taxed as income when received. If the coin price drops later, you still owe tax on the original value unless you sell to realize the loss.
Wash Sale Rule While the Wash Sale rule technically applies to securities, we calculate conservatively to ensure your return is defensible under scrutiny given recent legislative proposals.
Wrapping / Bridging Generally considered a taxable event by the IRS if the new token is materially different, though this is a grey area we navigate carefully.

Frequently Asked Questions

I lost money on crypto. Do I still need to file?

YES! This is the most important time to file. You can use your losses to offset other income (up to $3,000 per year against W-2 wages) and carry forward the rest indefinitely. Don't throw away that tax deduction.

Does the IRS really know about my crypto?

Yes. Centralized exchanges like Coinbase, Kraken, and Robinhood send Form 1099-MISC or 1099-B to the IRS. If your tax return doesn't match what the IRS received, it triggers an automatic audit letter (CP2000).

Can I just use Koinly or CoinTracker myself?

Software is a tool, not a solution. It often misclassifies internal transfers as taxable sales, or fails to pick up cost basis from older wallets. We use professional versions of these tools to audit the data before filing.

How do I send you my data?

We do NOT need your private keys or seed phrases. Never share those. You simply export your transaction history (CSV files) from your exchanges or provide "Read Only" API keys (we will guide you).

Do you handle foreign exchanges like KuCoin or Bybit?

Yes. Even if the exchange doesn't send a tax form, you are legally required to report the income. We help you reconstruct the history to keep you compliant.

What if I have missing data from 2017/2018?

This is common. We can use conservative basis estimation methods where historical data is unavailable to file a return that closes the statute of limitations while minimizing audit risk.
