Core Products/Services

Bugaboo Bookkeeping offers three primary service lines:

Crypto Tax Reconciliation is the firm's nationally-delivered flagship offering, covering multi-wallet and multi-exchange reconciliation, cost basis reconstruction, DeFi protocol tracing (Aave, Compound, Uniswap, Curve), staking rewards (ETH, SOL, ADA, DOT), NFT transactions, cross-chain bridge activity, airdrop and fork classification, mining income, and bankruptcy distribution documentation for Celsius, BlockFi, FTX, and Voyager. The firm works across six crypto tax platforms: Koinly (primary), CoinTracker, CoinLedger, ZenLedger, Awaken Tax, and Summ. Blockchain explorers Etherscan/Solscan and Arkham Intelligence are used for on-chain verification and wallet tracing.

Bookkeeping for Washington Businesses focuses on QuickBooks Online cleanup, catch-up bookkeeping, monthly bookkeeping, bank and credit card reconciliations, balance sheet cleanup, payroll clearing account review, and financial statement preparation. The firm specializes in messy or behind records rather than routine clean bookkeeping, targeting service-based businesses with approximately $150K to $5M in annual revenue.

Payroll Services provide QuickBooks-integrated payroll processing for Washington small businesses, covering pay run processing, payroll tax filings, employee setup, W-2 and 1099 support, and payroll cleanup for incorrectly configured prior payroll.
