Crypto Taxes
“What's the right way for me to report crypto from a failed exchange?”
A failed crypto exchange can create several tax reporting questions, and the right treatment often depends on what records still exist, whether the platform issued any tax forms, and whether the assets were actually lost, inaccessible, or later recovered. In many cases, the timing of the collapse, the type of crypto involved, and any withdrawals, transfers, or liquidation activity around the failure can affect how the transaction is reflected on a return. Documentation from the exchange, wallet history, and account statements usually shape the analysis, along with how the loss is characterized for federal and state purposes. Working through the specifics with a CPA is the cleanest way to land on the right move.
