Every time I talk about taxes, I want to laugh… Not at the tax rate, but at how I used to be too “casual,” losing transaction records here and there, and doing archaeological digs during year-end reconciliations. Now I have a simple method: export whatever exchange statements I can, use a few fixed on-chain addresses, don’t be lazy and cross-chain/transfer wallets randomly, clearly note “from where to where” in the remarks, or else in the end you'll just have a bunch of hashes that look like hieroglyphs.
For airdrops, referral rewards, market-making incentives, and such, don’t wait for the tax form to ask you “what’s this,” first keep a screenshot + timestamp.
Recently, NFT royalties have been hotly debated, and honestly it’s still about liquidity versus creator priority, and tax matters are the same: the more you try to avoid recording, the more likely you’ll be forced to explain later. Anyway, I don’t believe in eternal consensus, only in paths that can be exited and clearly explained… I’m going to work now.
