I’m officially panicking about my tax report. I have so many “Missing purchase history for XYZ” and the report says that I had a capital gains of $18,000+ USD but that can’t be correct. There is no way I made that kind of earnings. I’m not sure where to begin because I’m having real trouble finding the missing transactions.
I watched the video tutorials. I read the posted articles.
What I think is happening is that for some (or rather many) transactions, I see that the purchase//deposit I made to buy the crypto was not recorded so I think I’m being charged for the full amount and not the gains. For example, I think: if I bought $1000 of ETH and it rose to $1200 of ETH, rather than recording the gains as $200 it is recording the gains as $1200. Compound this to multiple “Missing purchase history for XYZ” errors and the gains is way, way, way, too high
The tax deadline is Oct 17th. I could really use some help here. Can a Koinly staff read my errors and try to help with specific advice on what next steps to take?
