WHAT BUYERS ACTUALLY ASK
How crypto tax software decides your cost basis
Cost basis is the number that sets your gain, and the method is not a preference. Each country mandates one, which is why a tool that only knows US rules stops being useful the moment you move or trade somewhere new.
The method follows the jurisdiction
The United States generally works on FIFO unless you can specifically identify lots. The United Kingdom uses share pooling with same-day and 30-day matching rules. Canada uses the adjusted cost base. Kryptos applies the rule for the country you file in rather than asking you to pick one and hope.
Why the same trades produce different numbers
Run one wallet through two methods and the taxable gain changes, sometimes by a lot, because they draw from different lots. That is not a bug in either tool. It is why a report needs to say which method produced it, and why switching software mid-year without carrying your lots over creates a mismatch you will have to explain.
Missing cost basis is the usual culprit
Most alarming numbers come from a transfer the tool could not match, so an asset appears to arrive from nowhere with a basis of zero. Reconciliation exists to surface those before they reach a report, not after.
Form 1099-DA and the 2026 filing season
Form 1099-DA is the IRS reporting form brokers must issue for digital asset sales starting with tax year 2025. It mirrors the 1099-B used for equities. It changes what the IRS already knows before you file, and it does not remove the work.
A broker only sees its own account
Your 1099-DA reflects activity at that broker. It cannot see the wallet you moved coins to, the DeFi position you opened, or what you paid on another venue. If you traded in more than one place, the forms will not add up to your return on their own.
Cost basis is now tracked wallet by wallet
The IRS requires brokers to track basis per wallet, so holding one asset across several places means allocating basis between them. Revenue Procedure 24-28 sets out a safe harbour for doing that allocation.
Reconcile the form against your own records
The practical job is matching every 1099-DA line to your own transaction history and correcting the mismatches before filing, rather than copying the form across and hoping it agrees.
Lowering the bill without getting creative
Most of what legitimately reduces a crypto tax bill is bookkeeping rather than strategy, and almost all of it depends on having complete records first.
Harvesting losses you already hold
Positions underwater at year end can be realised to offset gains, subject to your country's rules on how losses may be used and carried forward. A tool that knows your lots can show which ones are worth realising instead of leaving you to work it out by hand.
Fees, transfers and the things people forget
Trading fees usually adjust basis or proceeds, and moving your own coins between your own wallets is not a disposal. Both get mis-recorded often enough that fixing them is frequently the difference between a scary first number and the real one.
Handing it to an accountant
Plenty of people want software to do the reconstruction and a human to sign it off. Those two things should not require doing the work twice.
Give access, not a spreadsheet
An accountant working inside the same account sees the classifications, the reconciliation state and the audit trail, which is faster than emailing exports back and forth and easier to defend later.
When a professional is the right call
High volume, several jurisdictions, a business entity, or several unfiled years are the cases where software alone tends to stop being enough. The records still need to be clean before anyone can advise on them.
FAQ
Crypto tax software questions
Is there free crypto tax software?
Yes. Kryptos has a free tier that connects your wallets and exchanges and generates a tax report for up to 100 transactions, with no card required. Paid plans lift the transaction cap when you outgrow it.
What should I look for in the best crypto tax software?
Start with coverage: it should connect the exchanges, wallets, and chains you actually use, and apply your country’s specific rules rather than a generic calculation. Then check that it separates income from capital gains, tracks cost basis correctly, and exports the exact forms your tax office accepts.
How does crypto tax software work?
You connect your exchanges and wallets by API key or wallet address, and the software pulls in every transaction. It classifies each one, values it in your currency at the time it happened, works out gains and income, and produces a report you can file or hand to your accountant.
How much does crypto tax software cost?
It depends on how many transactions you have. Kryptos starts free for small histories and moves to paid tiers as your transaction count grows, so light users pay nothing and active traders pay for the volume they actually run.
Does Form 1099-DA replace crypto tax software?
No. Form 1099-DA reports what a single broker saw, and brokers must issue it for digital asset sales from tax year 2025. It cannot see the wallet you transferred to, the DeFi position you opened, or what you paid on another venue. If you used more than one platform, the forms will not reconcile to your return on their own, which is the work the software does.
Why does crypto tax software show missing cost basis?
Almost always because a transfer could not be matched, so an asset appears to arrive from nowhere and gets treated as having cost nothing. That inflates the gain, sometimes dramatically. The fix is reconciliation: compare the computed balance against what the exchange or chain actually reports, and resolve the unmatched transfers before generating a report.
Is free crypto tax software accurate?
Accuracy depends on coverage rather than price. A free tier that connects the same sources and applies the same jurisdiction rules produces the same numbers as a paid one; what free tiers normally limit is transaction volume, or whether you can download the finished report. Kryptos is free up to 100 transactions per tax year and the report is downloadable at that tier.
Which crypto tax software handles DeFi best?
The question to ask is how much gets classified without you intervening, because the cost of DeFi is manual cleanup rather than the software failing outright. Most tools now classify common liquidity, staking and lending activity automatically and leave a long tail to be tagged by hand. Test your own wallets on a free tier before committing, since the long tail is what differs.
Do I need crypto tax software if I only use one exchange?
Often not. If every trade happened on one platform that issues a complete tax statement, that statement may be enough. It stops being enough as soon as you move coins to a wallet, use a second venue, or touch DeFi, because no single platform can see the cost basis of assets that arrived from somewhere else.
When should I use an accountant instead of crypto tax software?
Software reconstructs the records; an accountant advises on them, and most people with a complicated year want both. High transaction volume, several jurisdictions, a business entity, or several unfiled years are the usual signals that software alone is not enough. The records still need to be clean first, because nobody can advise on a ledger that does not reconcile.
How do I get started with Kryptos?
Simply sign up for an account, connect your wallets or exchanges, and start using our tools for crypto tax calculations, portfolio management, and more. You can explore the platform through a free trial before committing to a paid plan.
