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?

Never mind. You can close out this ticket. Figure it out.

I had many DUPLICATE transactions. Basically all my ledger transactions were recorded 2X in conjunction with Metmask. I kept the metamask wallet and deleted the ledger ones, and while I still ahve some “missed purchased history” errors to take care of, the tax report almost halved and it makes much more sense.

I would still appreciate any additional support on how to fix the “missed purchased history” errors. I am thinking of going to blockchain and see if I can manually supply the missing transactions but this is a long tedious task. Hoping for a better solution
