The source says this is an opportunity to reset cost basis, which may affect future tax bills, and to protect previous years' reporting. New reporting requirements start in 2025. There are five steps most people should take. Step 1 is to consolidate assets and reduce the number of wallets for each asset type to a reasonable number. If tax were the only consideration, the ideal number is one asset per wallet, but security and other issues may make that unrealistic. Step 2 is to remove all assets from centralized exchanges during consolidation to allow cost basis cleansing. The source says you can move them back after January 1, 2025. This matters because unless you have only ever used one exchange, kept assets there, and never moved them, the exchange will likely report an incorrect cost basis after 2025. Step 3 is to simplify, ideally into pure assets. The source says more fringe activities such as staking can make tax more challenging. Step 4 is to download a report showing your tax basis, correct errors, write a memo documenting any weirdness, and save the files with a reference to 2024 IRS Safeharbor. Step 5 is to use opentimestamps.org to timestamp your correct report and memo as proof of your personal declaration. The source also addresses the consequences of doing nothing, the definition of a wallet for the safe harbor, software options, and situations involving coinjoin, only purchases on Coinbase, and shared cold storage. It recommends talking to a tax advisor.https://www.youtube-nocookie.com/embed/M1XPOFgjNPk58712024-12-15T21:26:16+00:00https://cryptovideos.net/video/paradigm-shift-what-lies-ahead-for-crypto-etfs-replay-vzi0YzRhFo02026-10-06T00:02:42+00:00https://cryptovideos.net/video-thumbnails/vzi0YzRhFo0-640.webpFuture of Crypto ETFs: Policy, Trends, and Benchmarks InsightsThe webinar replay examines the evolving landscape of crypto exchange‑traded funds.
