Reminder: Your $JTO airdrop counts as ordinary income for 2023 taxes. Remember, you're taxed on the initial amount, regardless of future value changes. Plan accordingly.
We now have full historical support for @Bancor!!
Just connect your ETH address and all of your trades, claims, add/remove liquidity transactions will pull into your account
We now have full historical support for @AlchemixFi!!
This includes minting, repayments, and farming.
This does not include income via debt repayments. We will be implementing this soon. The yield income can be input manually for now.
1inch airdrop pro tip:
For US tax payers, claim the airdrop after Jan 1st to defer the income until 2021.
If you’re on the edge of a tax bracket, this could be an expensive decision!
This is a step in our employee onboarding:
1. deposit to aETH on Aave, borrow DAI
2. trade half of borrowed DAI for ETH
3. put into ETH-DAI liquidity pool on Uniswap
4. stake the pool to earn UNI
We mean it when we say we understand what y’all are doing.
Crypto taxes are painful, hard, and confusing and TokenTax is by no means perfect, but damn, do we give a shit.

gm $blur claimers
Claims are taxable as ordinary income.
Generally speaking, best practice is to sell 1/3 on claim day to cover the liability.
If you claim today and the price drops 90% by year end, you still owe taxes at todays price.
We now have full historical for @BadgerDAO!
Just connect your ETH address and all of your Badger and DIGG transactions will pull into your TokenTax account.
PRO TIP: If you’re farming, think twice about *claiming* and then *holding*.
You are on the hook for income taxes for the fiat value *at time of claim*.
If you hold, it goes down in value, and then you sell; you will still need to pay tax on orig. claim.
This is a gigantic lie or misunderstanding.
Please reach out. We are happy to walk you through how cryptocurrencies make filing taxes more transparent than traditional finance.
Former Obama economist @jasonfurman on the crypto fracas: "If the technology makes it impossible to know people's capital gains, then the technology should not exist."
Just actually file your taxes and mail in an 8949.
If you have 15k trades per year (not uncommon) your 8949 would have 1,071 pages
Have you ever printed 1,071 pages?

REAL TALK: If you have losses on purchases from the Big Dump.
Think about selling them, realizing the losses, and moving the capital to a new position.
Doing this is called Tax Loss Harvesting.
Your realized losses can be used to reduce or even cancel out your capital gains.
a TT employee that was working on a clients account saw common transactions that were tax inefficient on a protocols side.
they messaged the protocol devs on discord and the devs altered the contracts to become more tax efficient.
and ur working with another cpa anon?

🚨 ANNOUNCEMENT
1/ Many of you have expressed that you (and your tax professionals) see certain DeFi transactions such as depositing to Aave, wrapping ETH, or entering a liquidity pool as non-taxable. Here's what's going on:
Lots of information coming through. It’s emerging that this was NOT a court ruling but in fact a one-off settlement- something often done to AVOID a precedent setting decision being handed down - but new info still trickling out
Me to my accountant:
Locked yCrv tokens in yGov to farm YFI, used YFI as collateral in Aave to borrow stables. Farmed Based, Sushi, Sashimi, Pickle, Swerve. Big pool 2 user. Hotdog rugged me. Also hedged SC risk with NXM.
Oh, I also used GST1 and GST2 in all txns.

.@yaxis_project has one of the best contracts we’ve seen from a tax advantage perspective.
Mostly b/c they dont send you a LP token in return when you deposit and they store your staked amount internally.
This will really shine once they create vaults with more volatile assets.
This dip sucks.
Do what you can to save money on your tax bill.
If you bought a coin at a higher USD value, trade it for something else to lock in the loss. This loss can be used to reduce your 2021 capital gains.

Hard pill to swallow: NFT taxes are much easier than DeFi taxes.
The biggest issue with NFT taxes is establishing the original cost basis for the NFT.
The cost basis can be established via the mint cost or the ETH that was spent to buy it.
As the space develops at a rapid clip, it’s worth exploring how primitives such as DAOs could be taxed.
We explore this through @radicle as an example.

We now have full historical support for the @UniswapProtocol airdrop and liquidity pool mining!!!
Just connect your ETH address and your transactions will pull into your TokenTax account.
We couldn’t go a day without launching something new :)
We are happy to announce that we have general ERC-721 and ERC-1155 mint support in TokenTax.
This means that any NFT mint will pull into your account with the correct cost basis (0 ETH if the mint was free or the price of the mint in ETH).
Just add your ETH address!
If you think $UNI will drop in price due to farming sell pressure, wait to claim the tokens!
You will need to file income taxes on the claim event.
PRO TIP: If you want to hold $UNI, claim when $UNI is at it’s lowest. This could greatly reduce your taxes!
We are super excited to announce full historical support for our most requested integration. @synthetix!!!
Just connect your ETH address and your Synthetix data will pull into your TokenTax account.
This includes issuing, burning, claiming, and trading!
We’re thinking about doing a few defi/crypto tax clubhouse sessions soon.
Who would want to join? Any traders or users that have questions they want answered?
ETH 2 staking taxes update:
We’re seeing a fair amount of people claim their staking rewards as income as their balance increases.
This is a great strategy because it starts the 1 year long term capital gains clock.
