Someone asked me how to keep track of tax reporting / transaction records at the end of the year without going crazy...
I'm now basically in obsessive-compulsive mode: every time I deposit, withdraw, exchange coins, or cross-chain, I immediately note down the txhash, time, chain, counterparty address, and take a screenshot for notes—don't rely on memory to piece it together later.
Especially with recent issues with cross-chain bridges, once the fund path is broken, reconciling becomes very difficult;
And with oracles acting up, everyone is "waiting for confirmation," so which timestamp to use for that transaction? It’s annoying to argue about it afterward.
Basically, there are two things: records must be able to be verified on-chain, and categories should be decided in advance (transactions, transfers, loans, interest/airdrops, etc.);
Don’t wait until December to dump a bunch of CSVs together... I’m lazy too, but I really don’t want to get angry at myself again at the end of the year.
