How Cryptocurrency Taxes Work
Cryptocurrencies like bitcoin are treated as property by many governments around the worldâincluding the U.S. Other forms of property that you may be familiar with include stocks, bonds, and real-estate.
Just like these other forms of property, cryptocurrencies are subject to capital gains and losses rules, and you need to report your gains, losses, and income generated from your crypto investments on your taxes.
To do your cryptocurrency taxes, you need to calculate your gains, losses, and income from your cryptocurrency investments in your home fiat currency (e.g. USÂ Dollar, Australian Dollar, etc.).
Once you have your calculations, you can fill out the necessary tax forms required by your country. If you are in the United States, you can learn which forms you need to fill out with our blog post: How to Report Cryptocurrency On Your Taxes.
Why Can't FTX Generate My Tax Forms?
Many cryptocurrency investors use additional exchanges, wallets, and platforms outside of FTX. Perhaps you also trade on Coinbase or earn interest from BlockFi. The trouble with FTX's reporting is that it only extends as far as the FTX platform. If you use additional cryptocurrency wallets, exchanges, DeFi protocols, or other platforms outside of FTX, FTX can't provide complete gains, losses, and income tax information.

Looking to report your FTX transactions on your taxes?Â
FTXâs bankruptcy in 2022 caused shockwaves throughout the crypto ecosystem and left customers wondering whether they would be able to recover their holdings.Â
In this guide, weâll break down everything you need to know about how FTX transactions are taxed. Weâll also share a simple tip that can help you file your crypto taxes in minutes.Â
What is FTX?Â
FTX is a cryptocurrency exchange founded by Sam Bankman-Fried and Gary Wang in 2019. In 2022, it was estimated that the exchange had more than $10 billion in daily trade volume.Â
In November 2022, FTX filed for bankruptcy after rumors of financial difficulties and liquidity issues.Â

I made gains on FTX but canât withdraw my funds. Do I still need to report this on my taxes?Â
If youâve earned income or made gains from cryptocurrency on FTX during the tax year, youâre required to report this on your tax return â even if you no longer have access to your holdings.Â
However, if you permanently lose access to your cryptocurrency, you may be able to write off its value as an investment loss (more on this in the next section). Losses can be used to offset capital gains from cryptocurrency and other assets.Â
Can I report my FTX losses on my tax return?Â
At this time, itâs unclear whether FTX customers will regain access to their funds after bankruptcy proceedings â a process that can take years to complete.Â
If you lose access to your FTX holdings permanently, you may be able to write off the value of your lost crypto-assets as an âinvestment lossâ. However, you will relinquish the right to re-claim your holdings in the future.Â
In most countries, youâll pay taxes on crypto when you earn or dispose of crypto.Â
When you earn crypto, youâll recognize income based on the fair market value of your cryptocurrency at time of receipt.Â
When you dispose of crypto, youâll recognize a taxable gain or loss depending on how the price of your coins have changed since you originally received them.Â
For more information, you can explore our guides to how cryptocurrency is taxed in various countries.Â
FTX does collect KYC (Know Your Customer) information when you sign up for an account. According to the exchangeâs privacy policy, FTX will share your information when compelled to do so by law enforcement.Â
What records do I need to report my FTX taxes?Â
Itâs important to keep a careful record of your cryptocurrency transactions. Generally, itâs recommended that you keep track of the following information for at least 5 years.Â
The type of cryptocurrencyÂ
The amount of cryptocurrencyÂ
Your reason for making the transactionÂ
The date you received your cryptocurrencyÂ
The date you disposed of your cryptocurrencyÂ
The fair market value of your crypto at the time of receiptÂ
The fair market value of your crypto at the time of disposal
The other party involved in the transaction (even if itâs just their wallet address)
Any relevant feesÂ
Does FTX provide tax forms?Â
At this time, FTX doesnât provide tax forms to users.Â
Typically, cryptocurrency exchanges have trouble reporting taxable income to their users. Because investors often transfer their coins across different wallets, itâs difficult to find information on cost basis â which is needed to calculate capital gains and losses.Â
As a result, the burden for keeping records of crypto transactions falls on the investor.Â
Trying to manually track your cryptocurrency transactions for tax purposes can be difficult. Luckily, thereâs an easier way.Â
With CoinLedger, you can report your FTX taxes in a few simple steps.Â
Step 1:
