With transactions spread across multiple wallets, blockchains, and DeFi protocols, even minor errors can lead to audits, penalties, or missed opportunities. At OnChain Accounting, our trusted team of cryptocurrency accountants works with speed and precision to deliver reliable, IRS-compliant accounting built for the digital asset economy.
From day one, our expert crypto tax accountants and crypto bookkeepers focus on accuracy, making sure every transaction is properly reconciled. You don’t need to spend hours trying to track down data across different exchanges or DeFi protocols. We handle the challenges that come with high-volume trading and help you to get the benefit of legal deductions, tax deferrals, and capital loss strategies.

With OnChain, you get a supportive partner who understands how crypto taxation directly impacts your financial growth. Let’s minimize risks, stay compliant with changing regulations, and, most importantly, keep your financial strategy on track.
Tailored Crypto Accounting Solutions for Your Business Needs
The back end of crypto can get complicated fast. Wallets multiply. Transactions pile up. IRS rules keep changing. This means that crypto isn’t one-size-fits-all, and neither are your accounting needs.
At OnChain Accounting, we offer accounting built specifically for how you move in the crypto world. Our tools, strategies, and crypto tax guidance are specialized to ensure that no mistakes are made with your digital asset accounting needs.
For Crypto Traders
Are you trading full-time or just getting started? We help active and high-frequency traders make sense of thousands of transactions across exchanges, wallets, and chains. Our crypto accountants track every trade, report your gains accurately, and find ways to reduce what you owe while staying compliant.
For NFT Creators and Collectors
NFT tax regulations for those who mint, sell, or collect digital assets tend to change constantly. For most accountants, NFT taxes are still a gray area. Our expert digital asset tax professionals will handle airdrops, gas fees, sales, etc., so your tax filings are accurately classified and reported with no audit risk.
For DeFi Users
DeFi opens up many opportunities with farming, staking, bridging, and wrapping. But DeFi tax planning is not easy to handle. Your income from staking rewards, liquidity mining, and protocol incentives can get misclassified, leading to penalties. Our team tracks all activity and delivers clean, compliant records that are audit-ready to keep your DeFi gains compliant.
For Web3 Startups and DAOs
If you are building in Web3, setting up your crypto accounting system early on can save a lot of time down the line. We help you stay financially organized as you grow, making sure everything is properly tracked, structured, and ready for investors or tax deadlines. Our team supports you with entity structuring, accurate crypto bookkeeping, and outsourced CFO guidance when you need it.

Expert Cryptocurrency Accounting Services
We help individuals, founders, and crypto teams stay on top of their tax and financial reporting. Whether you are staking, mining, trading, or building in Web3, our team can reconcile multi-wallet data and prepare investor-ready reports, making sure that your financial end is clear and accurate.
Crypto Tax Compliance
Crypto taxes are complicated as they are always changing. Our crypto tax experts take care of your annual filings by making sure your capital gains, staking income, NFT sales, DeFi, or multi-wallet activity is reported correctly and on time. Our crypto tax accountants apply accurate cost basis methods and IRS-compliant reports to file taxes properly. We also help you plan ahead to reduce your liability through tax-loss harvesting and other legal strategies.
Crypto Bookkeeping
Our crypto bookkeepers handle day-to-day bookkeeping for both fiat and crypto transactions, giving you clear and updated financial records. Accurate crypto bookkeeping is important to understand your business’s financial health in terms of profit, losses, taxes, and cash flow. We integrate automated accounting tools so your records stay in sync. When all crypto transactions are reconciled and organized, it’s easier for you to manage financial risks and make informed business decisions.
DeFi and NFT Accounting
Short for decentralized finance, DeFi is the umbrella term for financial services like staking, lending, and liquidity pooling that occur directly on public blockchains like Ethereum. NFTs (non-fungible tokens) are also decentralized financial services that come with reporting challenges, especially when it comes to sales, royalties, and airdrops. Each type of transaction has its own tax treatment. Our team understands the nuances of DeFi protocols and NFT marketplaces. We categorize transactions correctly, calculate cost basis, and prepare audit-ready records tailored to IRS requirements whether you are farming yield or trading NFTs.
Crypto Mining Accounting
Mining crypto is one way to create a steady revenue stream. If you are a miner, you might be finding it hard to maintain your financial records while tracking block rewards, deducting equipment costs, and dealing with fluctuating income. At OCA, we guide solo and commercial miners to stay on top of the financial side. An experienced cryptocurrency accountant from our team will categorize income and capital expenses properly while managing electricity deductions and calculating depreciation.
Crypto Tax Reconciliation
If you have used multiple wallets, exchanges, or DeFi platforms, you know how chaotic crypto recordkeeping can get. CSV exports don’t always match, APIs drop data, and trades get lost in the shuffle. We take the stress out of reconciling your transactions. Firstly, our team pulls data from all your wallets, protocols, and platforms. Then every trade is matched, and any discrepancies are corrected. While crypto reconciliation is essential for a high-frequency trader before tax season, even if you are only active across a few chains, getting a clean financial picture is beneficial for crypto tax reporting.
CFO Services
Keeping your finances in order shouldn’t slow your project down. At OnChain, we give Web3 teams the structure and visibility they need to grow responsibly. Our crypto financial controllers handle core functions like monthly reporting, expense management, and treasury tracking with crypto-native precision. We help you make sense of on-chain activity, organize your books, and deliver clean financials that keep investors and stakeholders confident. To stay financially agile, our crypto accountants manage token incentives and protocol revenue as well as budgeting in stablecoins.

Why Cryptocurrency Accounting Matters
Crypto is not like other asset classes. It belongs to a financial system that is always changing. And that means traditional accounting methods fall short. Without proper tracking and reporting of crypto, traders and businesses face these risks:
- Overpaying taxes
- Missing deductions
- Audits and penalties
A reliable cryptocurrency accountant or crypto CPA (certified public accountant) helps you:
- Stay compliant with IRS regulations
- Maximize legal deductions and minimize liabilities
- Avoid errors that trigger audits
- Maintain clean, audit-ready financial records
- Save hours of time with accurate reporting systems
If you are a crypto investor, a full time trader, or running a Web3 startup, having accurate crypto bookkeeping and a tax strategy designed for your digital assets will help you in the long run. Cryptocurrency accounting is not only about filing taxes before a deadline.
Avoid These Common Crypto Tax Mistakes
Even experienced investors and startups tend to make these avoidable mistakes when they decide to engage in DIY accounting for lower costs.
Avoiding these mistakes starts with working alongside a crypto-native accountant who understands the nuances of blockchain activity. Experienced crypto accountants are also updated on the latest changes in IRS regulations for digital asset accounting.
Not Reporting All Wallets or Transactions
It's common to forget smaller wallets or past exchanges, but the IRS sees this as underreporting.
Mixing Personal and Business Wallets
Without clear separation, tax reporting becomes disorganized and inaccurate.
Misclassifying Airdrops, Forks, or Staking Rewards
These aren’t just free tokens. All taxable income needs proper tax treatment by crypto tax professionals.
Incorrect Cost Basis Tracking
If you don’t track cost basis accurately (especially across wallets), your capital gains report may be inaccurate.
DIY Accounting Without Reconciliation
Using spreadsheets or generic tools may miss trade history, result in double-counting, or create discrepancies with exchange records.
