Our experienced CFOs bring decades of expertise across various industries to help your business thrive







We follow ASC 350 guidance treating crypto as intangible assets. This requires indefinite-lived intangible asset accounting with impairment testing when fair value drops below cost basis, but no upward revaluation is allowed under current GAAP. We track cost basis using FIFO, LIFO, or specific identification methods, maintain detailed transaction logs for audit trails, and work with the FASB's evolving guidance on fair value measurement.
Yes. We use specialized blockchain analytics tools to track transactions across 25+ chains including Ethereum, Bitcoin, Polygon, Solana, Avalanche, and more. We reconcile bridge transactions, cross-chain swaps, and multi-sig wallet operations, ensuring every on-chain transaction matches your books. Our reconciliation process includes gas fee tracking, failed transaction handling, and mempool analysis.
We maintain detailed cost basis tracking using IRS-compliant methods (FIFO, LIFO, or Specific ID). For each transaction, we track date acquired, purchase price, fees paid, holding period, and disposition details. We generate Form 8949 with complete transaction history, calculate short-term vs. long-term gains, identify tax loss harvesting opportunities, and handle complex scenarios like hard forks, airdrops, and staking rewards.
We've worked with 15+ DeFi protocols including DEXs, lending platforms, and yield aggregators. We handle liquidity pool accounting (tracking LP tokens and impermanent loss), revenue recognition for trading fees and protocol fees, token emission schedules and vesting, staking rewards and governance token distribution, and smart contract interaction tracking. We also model tokenomics and provide treasury management strategies.
Absolutely. We prepare comprehensive proof of reserves packages including on-chain wallet verification, custody reconciliation across hot and cold storage, customer liability matching, cryptographic proof generation, and third-party auditor coordination. We've completed 12 successful proof of reserves attestations with Big 4 and specialized crypto auditors, maintaining 100% asset reconciliation rates.
We specialize in NFT platform economics including primary sales vs. secondary sales revenue, royalty payment tracking and creator splits, marketplace fee allocation, gas fee absorption strategies, and fractional NFT accounting. We integrate with OpenSea, Blur, and custom marketplaces to automate transaction tracking and ensure proper revenue recognition timing.
Mining income is recognized as ordinary income at fair market value on the date of receipt, with subsequent gains/losses on disposition. Staking rewards follow similar treatment. We track electricity and equipment costs as deductible expenses, calculate depreciation schedules for mining equipment, monitor pool fees and commissions, and handle validator rewards for proof-of-stake chains. We also provide tax optimization strategies to minimize liability.
