How does BlockFi tax reporting work?

BlockFi is a robust exchange and wallet for devoted crypto traders. But when it comes to tax reporting, it doesn’t offer much to allow you to file your taxes. Luckily, Accointing’s BlockFi tax calculator and portfolio tracker for transaction history analysis and tax reporting. You can generate your tax reports in the specific format required by your country. 

To begin, you’ll have to integrate your BlockFi account with Accointing then import your trade and transaction history. Here are the different ways to do that:

• CSV – download your BlockFi transaction data and import it into Accointing.
• Accointing template – fill out our easy-to-use template, fill it out, and upload it to Accointing. 

Integrate with Accointing via the BlockFi API

BlockFi currently does not provide an API for its platform. As such, users have to use the approach of importing a CSV file into Accointing. Thankfully, there are no prior modifications required to the file before upload. If your transactions are very few, then you may use the Accointing template to fill out and upload.

Common issues with importing transactions from BlockFi

BlockFi currently doesn’t provide an API option so users have to rely on the CSV import option. One of the challenges of importing CSV from BlockFi is that some transactions may appear skipped. These include ACH withdrawals, cc trading rebates, and crypto transfers.

Please note that this is a bug on BlockFi’s side and their support team is constantly working to rectify these issues. If you encounter these problems, you can request BlockFi customer support to send you an updated CSV file of your account’s transactions.
