Stay Compliant, Stay Ahead:
Master the 1099-DA Era of Crypto Taxation

The IRS is implementing major updates that significantly affect crypto investors, traders, and brokers:
Mandatory 1099-DA Reporting
Beginning January 2026, U.S. brokers such as Coinbase, Kraken, Binance and other centralized platforms must report user transactions to the IRS using the new 1099-DA form.

The form will include detailed information about digital asset transactions, cost basis, and holding periods.

With Kryptos, brokers can streamline compliance effortlessly.

Our platform automates transaction data management, generates accurate 1099-DA forms, and provides ready-to-submit reports, reducing manual effort and ensuring precision in IRS submissions.

Wallet Based Cost Basis Tracking
The IRS now requires taxpayers to calculate cost basis—how much was paid for an asset—on a wallet-by-wallet basis, replacing the universal cost-basis method. Taxpayers must use either specific identification or FIFO (First-In, First-Out) to ensure accurate reporting of gains and losses.

Kryptos simplifies this transition by automating wallet-by-wallet cost basis calculations, ensuring compliance with IRS regulations while saving time and reducing errors.

Safe Harbor Allocations
By December 31, 2024 or before the first trade in 2025, taxpayers must allocate any unused basis for digital assets held as of January 1, 2025, in accordance with IRS Revenue Procedure 2024-28. This safe harbor allocation plan allows taxpayers to reasonably allocate unused basis to digital assets within each wallet or account, ensuring compliance with the new regulations.

Kryptos provides tools to automate this process and generate IRS-appropriate records. These updates represent the most comprehensive shift in crypto taxation since 2014.
