Digital Asset Accounting

Although there is no special standard for cryptocurrency accounting, the accounting of cryptocurrencies can still be based on the current International Financial Reporting Standards (IFRS). In choosing the right approach, it is important to understand the cryptographic activity of a particular company, i.e. whether the company uses cryptocurrency as a means of payment or invests, trades, stakes or issues cryptocurrency instead.

We are well versed in blockchain technology and speak the same language as cryptographic companies. We can safely say that we serve cryptocurrencies, because as our customers develop, so do we, adapting our knowledge and technological solutions to the rapidly evolving business world around us.

Every cryptocurrency transaction that results in capital gains or losses is considered a taxable event and thorough trading and financial reporting documentation are important for accurate gain/loss calculation. For some corporate clients, this can involve hundreds or even thousands of transactions over the course of a year, quickly becoming a complicated and confusing accounting situation.
