Concordium is a network that checks who you are before you can open an account. You verify your identity with a provider, and only then can you hold anything.
Your address is a 50-character string, usually starting with a 3 or a 4. The identity behind it is encrypted and not visible in the address itself.
The quirk that matters most for records is that one account has millions of valid addresses. They are all the same account, and they share one balance.
What you get out of the box

On Concordium
- Open your wallet and copy your address. It is a 50-character string, usually beginning with 3 or 4.
- If you have seen more than one address for the same account, any of them will do. They share a balance and a history.
On Kryptos
- Go to Kryptos.io and sign up with your Google account.
- From the menu, click Integrations.
- Click Add Integration and search for Concordium.
- Click the Concordium icon, then choose Import using Address.
- Give the wallet a name, paste your address, and click Import Your Transactions.
Good to know
- One account has many valid addresses. Two that look different can be the same account, and only the last few characters differ.
- Staking rewards always arrive at your main address, which may not be the one you normally use.
- Whether rewards compound or land in your spendable balance is a setting you can change at any time.
One account, millions of addresses
This is the thing that makes Concordium different from every other network in this catalogue, and it will confuse any tool that treats an address as an identity.
A Concordium account does not have one address. It has roughly sixteen million of them, all valid, all pointing at the same account. They are not created or registered; they exist automatically. Only the last few characters differ, with everything before that identical across the whole set.
They share one balance and one transaction history. Money sent to any of them arrives in the same place. So two addresses that look almost the same, differing only at the very end, are one wallet, and importing both as separate wallets would count the same holding twice.
The design exists for privacy: you can hand a different address to each person you deal with, and they cannot tell from the addresses alone that they are paying the same account.
Two practical consequences. Staking rewards always arrive at the account's main address, which may not be the one you use day to day, so reward income can appear somewhere you were not watching. And the sharing is not total: while your CCD is unified across every address, other kinds of token are often tracked per address instead, so one account can hold separate token balances at different addresses. That is the reverse of the usual problem and the reason a complete picture needs more than one address checked.
For how holdings are reported where you file, see the USA crypto tax guide or the UK crypto tax guide.
A setting that changes how your rewards are taxed
Concordium pays staking rewards once a day, and there is a single toggle deciding what happens to them.
With restaking switched on, rewards are added straight to your stake. Nothing reaches your spendable balance and there is no payment to point at. Your staked amount grows and the reason is not recorded as a transfer.
With it off, rewards are deposited into your spendable balance each day, where they are visible and countable.
In most countries both are income. Reinvesting something does not mean you never received it, and the automatic nature of the reinvestment does not change that. But only one of the two leaves an obvious trail, which is why compounded rewards get missed.
The wrinkle is that the toggle can be changed whenever you like, including partway through a year. So a single year's history can contain both patterns, and any approach that assumes one mode for the whole period will misstate part of it. Kryptos reads the actual behaviour from the chain rather than assuming.

Recognising one account behind several addresses
Addresses that differ only at the end belong to the same account and share a balance. Treating them as separate wallets would multiply your holdings.
Finding rewards at an address you do not use
Staking rewards always go to the account's main address, which may not be the one you hand out or the one you watch.
Handling the restake setting
Rewards either compound into your stake or land in your spendable balance, depending on a toggle you can change mid-year.

Many addresses, one position
An account's addresses share a single balance and a single history. Importing several as separate wallets would count the same holding repeatedly.
Rewards are income whether or not they compound
With restaking on, rewards go straight into your stake and never touch your spendable balance. In most countries they were still received before being reinvested.
The setting can change mid-year
Because restaking can be switched at any time, a single year can contain both compounded and paid-out rewards. One assumption applied across the year will be wrong for part of it.
Reducing your stake locks it for weeks
Decreasing or removing a stake starts a cooldown of about three weeks during which the funds are frozen. That is not a disposal, but it can straddle a year end.
Some tokens do not share across addresses
While your CCD balance is unified across an account's addresses, other token types are not always. The same account can hold separate token balances at different addresses.
Lecture seule par conception.
- Kryptos only ever needs your public wallet address
- A public address is read-only. It can't move or spend anything
- We never ask for your recovery phrase or private key
- Remove a wallet whenever you like, and its data goes with it

Rewards are always paid to the account's main address. It is the same account, so nothing has gone astray.
They are the same account. Only the final characters differ, and every one of them points at one balance.
Check the restake setting. With it on, rewards are added to your stake rather than paid out, so nothing reaches your spendable balance.
