What a Crypto Tax Accountant Actually Does
A crypto tax accountant does far more than file a return. We reconcile every transaction across your wallets and exchanges โ trades, swaps, staking, mining, airdrops, NFTs, DeFi โ and establish accurate cost basis the exchanges often get wrong.
We reconcile your 1099-DA forms against your real records so you donโt overpay on inflated gains. We plan the timing of your sales, harvest losses where they help, and structure entities for founders and businesses.
And if the IRS or a state sends a notice, we represent you. A generalist CPA who sees one crypto return a year cannot do this reliably; a crypto specialist does it every day.โ
Your Crypto Tax Solutions
WHY CRYPTO TAX FILING IS MORE COMPLEX THAN YOU THINK
The IRS treats every cryptocurrency transaction as a property disposition. That means each sale, trade, swap, spend, and conversion must be individually reported with accurate acquisition dates, cost basis, and proceeds.
Here are the questions we hear most from crypto investors preparing to file their returns.
Yes. Crypto taxation is primarily federal, and CPAs serve clients nationwide. Chainwise CPA works with clients across the country remotely, using secure document handling, encrypted client portals, and video meetings โ so the right specialist matters far more than physical location.
It depends on the complexity โ transaction volume, number of wallets and exchanges, DeFi and NFT activity, business versus individual, and how many prior years need cleanup. Chainwise CPA offers transparent pricing and a paid pre-engagement call for complex situations, which credits toward your engagement if you sign within 30 days.
Form 1099-DA is the IRS reporting form crypto exchanges and brokers now issue for digital asset transactions. The totals must be reconciled against your own cost-basis records before they flow into your return โ mismatches inflate your gains and trigger IRS notices. A crypto tax accountant reconciles wallet by wallet to prevent that.
Yes. Many clients come to us with several years of unreported or misreported crypto activity. We rebuild the history, reconcile it accurately, file amended returns where needed, and help bring you into compliance โ often recovering overpayments along the way, without judgment.

What Our Clients Say
Trusted by Taxpayers Nationwide
Donโt just take our word for it โ hear from the clients weโve helped navigate the complex world of cryptocurrency and traditional taxation.
Our clientsโ success stories speak volumes about our expertise, dedication, and the real-world impact of our services.
As I researched this topic, one crypto advisory group clearly stood out amongst their competition, and that was Polygon Advisory Group. Before I could sign up with them, I had to have brief meeting with them to see if my needs and their talents would align. After our 15 minute intro meeting, I was more than convinced they had the skillset, and desire, to unravel my crypto challenges.
I have to commend Daniel B. and his extraordinary talent to analyze my crypto reports and then provide reconciliation for all of my accounts. He was also intuitive to recognize many gaps in my information and then investigate deeper to connect all of the data points. There is no possible way I could have performed such a feat by myself. When all was finished, Daniel went back in my previous tax returns and even recommended that I file amendments for the last 5 years, and that ended up saving me a lot of money (excess $10K) due to me incorrectly reporting my crypto income.
Closing: So many companies are only willing to document the numbers that you provide them and then quickly close your file. Polygon Advisory Group digs in deep and investigates the incomplete files/data and helps you bring resolve to your crypto headaches. I'll use them again next year, as they have my complete trust!
The whole time the team provided timely responses and were able to guide me during the whole process and explained what was being done.
Had a couple of zoom calls before even starting working with them to clarify if they were the correct people to help me with my crypto situation.
Very knowledgeable, helpful, courteous, highly recommended
