Correct Crypto Tax Return Filing for 2025

*Report accuracy depends on accurate prior-year crypto records. Additional reconciliation may be required if issues are identified.

  1. All engagements include a scope assessment to confirm complexity and whether the work fits within the starting-price scope.
  2. Tax advisory and current- or prior-year amended return preparation are available under a separate engagement.
  3. Crypto tax software subscription fees are not included in the service pricing.
  • 2025 Full-Service Filing โ€“ Crypto + Tax
    • Best for clients who want us to handle both crypto reconciliation and 2025 tax filing.
  • Complete Reconciliation – All Years
    • Ideal for clients needing prior-year cleanup and reconciliation before tax filing.ย 
  • 2025 Crypto Reconciliation & Reporting
    • Designed for clients with accurate prior-year records who need 2025 crypto reconciliation and filing-ready reports.

Starting prices cover a defined base scope. We will review your records to confirm the scope andย obtainย your approval before anyย additionalย work or fees.ย 

Budget covered by starting price:ย 

  • 2025ย Full-Service Filingย โ€“ Crypto +ย Tax โ€“ up to 6 hours of crypto work, plus 2025 federal and one home-state individual income tax return preparation:ย 
    • Federal:ย up to two W-2s, five 1099-INT/DIV, five 1099-B, crypto sales, and Schedule Aย ย 
    • Home state:ย up to two state adjustmentsย 
  • Complete Reconciliation – All Yearsย –ย up toย 6 hours of cryptoย reconciliation workย 
  • 2025 Crypto Reconciliation & Reportingย –ย up toย 4ย hours of cryptoย reconciliation workย 

We aim to keep pricing predictable and aligned with the actual workย required.ย 

Our pricing is based on standard assumptionsย regardingย transaction volume, data quality, and overall complexity.ย Once all necessary records are received, we perform a detailedย scopeย review to confirm the actual workย required.ย 

Additionalย fees may apply for:ย 

  • High transaction volumes orย aย large number ofย wallets/exchangesย ย 
  • Complex crypto activity (DeFi, NFTs, staking, derivatives, etc.)ย ย 
  • Prior-year or multi-year work beyond included hoursย 
  • Wallet-by-wallet transitionย when not included in the selected planย 
  • Incomplete or inconsistent recordsย ย 
  • For theย Full-Service Filingย plan: complex tax situations (multi-state, international,ย additionalย tax forms such as Schedule C, Schedule E, multiple K-1s, FBAR, etc.)ย 

ย 

Any fee adjustments will be communicated transparently and require approval beforeย additionalย work proceeds.

Why Accurate Crypto Reporting Matters

The 2025 Form 1099-DA reports gross proceeds only, not cost basis.ย This means the IRS will see numbers that may not reflect your actual taxable gain,ย unless your records are properly reconciled and reviewed.ย 

Without proper reconciliation:ย 

  • Gains/losses may be overstated or understatedย ย 
  • IRS mismatches are more likelyย ย 
  • Audit and notice risk increasesย ย 

ย 

Complex crypto activity often requires wallet-level reconciliation and expert review to produce complete,ย accurate, and defensible tax reporting.ย 

Frequently Asked Questions

1. Which plan should I choose?

Use the comparison above as a starting point. Ifย you’reย unsure which plan fits your situation, schedule a 15-minute pre-engagement call andย we’llย explain the differences and next steps.ย 

2. Do I need reconciliationย if I alreadyย usedย crypto tax software?

In many cases, yes.ย Crypto tax software relies on the data provided and does not verify completeness or accuracy. Missing transactions, incorrect cost basis, or misclassified transfers can still result in inaccurate reporting.

3. Is the starting price my final price?

The starting price covers the defined base scope shown above. After receiving your records, we confirm whether the engagement fits within that scope.ย Ifย moreย work is needed, we will explain theย additionalย scope and fees and obtain your approval beforeย proceeding.

4. Can I rely on reports prepared by software or other providers?

Forย accurateย and defensible reporting, all crypto activity must be reviewed and reconciled under ourย methodology.ย 

We do not rely on self-prepared or third-party reports without performing our own validation to ensure completeness and consistency.ย 

ย 

Real Client Example

A client came to us after filing using crypto tax software, reporting a $50,000 gain.ย After reconciliation, weย identifiedย missing transactions and pricing errors,ย reducing the reported gain by over $35,000ย andย substantially reducingย the client’s reported taxable gain, as well asย eliminatingย discrepancies that could have triggered IRS scrutiny.ย

Frequently Asked Questions

1. Which plan is right for my business?

Weโ€™ll guide you based on your actual structure and activity. Most business clients begin with a pre-engagement call, where we review your crypto activity, accounting set-up, and tax requirements to recommend the appropriate plan.

2. What does crypto reconciliation involve?

We review and align your crypto transactions across wallets and exchanges, then reconcile them to your accounting records to ensure accuracy and consistency.

3. What does your starting price for each service plan cover?

The starting price covers a typical engagement, including up to 15 hours of crypto reconciliation, 1099-DA matching, tax reports, crypto tax workpapers, and journal entries, plus up to 4 hours of light bookkeeping support, including crypto journal entries and a high-level financial statement review to identify issues before tax return filing.

The Full-Service Filing plan includes the same crypto reconciliation and bookkeeping support, plus preparation of the 2025 federal and home-state business tax return, including the standard tax workpapers, schedules, and applicable tax election statements.

Budget reallocations may be made based on each client’s specific circumstances. If additional complexity or work outside the standard scope is identified after reviewing your records, we will discuss the scope and obtain your approval before proceeding with any fee adjustments.

Real Client Example

A crypto business had inconsistent wallet records and accounting books, resulting in overstated income and uncertainty before tax filing. After completing our reconciliation and accounting cleanup, the records were fully aligned, taxable income was corrected, and the business was able to file with confidence using accurate, defensible documentation.ย

I was at the end of my rope trying to decipher the never ending new rules and regulations of the IRS, as it pertains to crypto. I thought I was doing a good job keeping everything in order with my exchanges, transfers and swaps, until I received my 1099 - DA's, which were highly inaccurate. I knew my problems would only get worse if I didn't take a more professional approach in addressing them, so I needed to hire a crypto and tax expert.

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!

I recommend Chainwise CPA because they were professional, cost efficient, competent and courteous in the tax services they provided me. They did my Federal and state tax returns for cryptocurrency transactions in addition to the tax work on my incomes from pensions and annuities, interest and dividend earnings. They were thorough in their work, and patient with me. I would recommend them because they are world-class and reliable in what they do.

Sharon Yip and the whole team were amazing, they were able to help me get all my crypto aligned and tracked all my transactions to identify my gains and losses for me to properly complete my 2024 taxes.
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

I was new to crypto trading and lacked knowledge about how crypto transactions are taxed and how to report crypto profits and/or capital gains to the IRS. As a new customer, I contacted Polygon Advisory Group services to prepare my tax documents for both all my crypto transactions and for my regular income and other financial investment earnings. Their services were comprehensive and thorough and in compliance with every detailed aspect of my IRS and Virginia tax filing requirements.
