The 1099-DA isn’t the whole story — your wallet is, and your wallet doesn’t file taxes

Wallet / exchange column matters because basis follows the lot, not the coin — moving 0.5 BTC from Coinbase to a hardware wallet doesn’t reset basis but most exporters break.

Acquired (date) drives long-term vs short-term holding — the 366-day cliff is a 20+ percentage-point tax difference at the top bracket.

Different from Investment Portfolio Tracker: lots, not positions — crypto’s tax math is per-lot, equities’ usually isn’t.

Practical setup tips

Before printing the Crypto Holdings & Cost Basis Tracker, decide what one row represents and how often the page will be reviewed. That keeps the sheet from becoming a catch-all notes page and makes the finished record easier to compare with similar pages in the same binder or workflow.

  • Coin should be filled in consistently so the sheet remains useful after the first day of use.
  • Wallet / exchange should be filled in consistently so the sheet remains useful after the first day of use.
  • Acquired (date) should be filled in consistently so the sheet remains useful after the first day of use.
  • Qty should be filled in consistently so the sheet remains useful after the first day of use.
  • Cost basis $ should be filled in consistently so the sheet remains useful after the first day of use.
  • Avg $ / coin should be filled in consistently so the sheet remains useful after the first day of use.

If the printable is part of a formal, financial, medical, legal, or compliance workflow, use it as a planning and note-taking aid alongside the official system or professional guidance that applies to your situation.
