Cryptocurrency Tax and Portfolio management made easy with CoinTracker.

in #cointrackerio5 years ago (edited)

In the world of blockchain and cryptocurrency tax, many are lost and would rather not bother with the cumbersome task. Why? They simply don't know how easy it can be or they would rather avoid taxes.

Many individuals feel that because it's cryptocurrency, avoiding taxes is the name of the game. Well, that is not the case. More and more cryptocurrency traders are tracking their transactions, filing their taxes from gains and even airdrops because they realize the nature of digital assets and its trace-ability.

A couple years down the line, the last thing you want is a knock on the door from tax collectors and seeing your lambo being towed away. ( Ouch)

How it works

The first step is to sign up using your email and creating your password. Then you can start linking your exchanges, wallets and transactions manually if need be.
I was really impressed how Cointracker could grab all the information from my Ethereum wallet address, show all the transactions, even the airdrops I received. I didn't even realize some of these drops.

The second step is to review your transactions making sure everything looks in order. You will also be able to add other taxable cryptocurrency income such as; airdrops, forks, mining and payments. They get it all in there. You can also import CVS files once it is in the correct format and if you have this on hand.

The third Step is generating your tax documents you will need to report to the tax authority. This service requires a yearly subscription fee and has different plans to choose from. Note: portfolio performance tracking is free and is of extreme value, as it is like having an AI accountant doing your cryptocurrency management. It is simply amazing.

Final Thoughts

I was very skeptical at first about using CoinTracker or any other platform that tracks my crypto so I can pay taxes. like many I hate the word tax but once I added a wallet and saw the perspective I was able to get through automatic and basically free accounting of my cryptocurrency transactions all in one place, I was very impressed.

If cryptocurrency is indeed the future which we all know it is, I highly recommend taking the time to get your assets in order and CoinTracker is a very simple and secure way to do so.

Sign up for CoinTracker and just add one wallet to test it out, I guarantee you will be amazed.

This is interesting but I don't make enough in trading to justify those costs. So, it's a no-no for me.

Thanks for sharing, anyway.

Yeah , I think most people in crypto at the moment. Lol! But I do recommend the portfolio performance tracker. It’s unlike anything I’ve seen.
