The Token Expert Method

The firm's proprietary methodology follows a structured 10-step process: tool selection and data import (using platforms like Octav, Koinly, and blockchain indexing tools), transaction identification and categorisation, client collaboration for ambiguous transactions, protocol-based impact calculation, data validation, gains/losses computation, cost basis reconciliation, annual summary preparation, journal entry preparation (for corporate clients), and tax form preparation. The method leverages SQL and Python alongside specialist crypto accounting platforms to deliver high accuracy across thousands of complex transactions on multiple chains.
