Millions of cryptocurrency users face a challenging problem when it comes to staying compliant with tax laws. Due to the way the digital asset is treated by governments around the world, it is most often subject to capital gains and losses rules similar to stocks, bonds, and other forms of property. This sparks a wide variety of problems for consumers, cryptocurrency exchanges, tax professionals, and other platforms that need to provide both cost basis data and fair market value data to properly report the asset for tax purposes. CryptoTrader.Tax is a platform built to solve this challenge, and with its 2018 partnership with tax giant TurboTax, it is now bringing cryptocurrency tax services to the mainstream. The company is often referred to as The TurboTax for Crypto Investors.
