Lately I've been a bit exhausted by this "year-end tax declaration" thing. Honestly, it's not that I'm afraid of paying taxes, but I'm worried about digging up old records and not being able to reconcile until 3 a.m. Now I have a very simple method: every time there's a large transaction, I just take a screenshot, noting the address, time, and platform; for on-chain transfers, I just put the transaction hash into a spreadsheet, with a note in plain language like "moved from A to cold wallet / transferred to a friend / bought a JPEG"... Anyway, when I see the notes later, I can remember what it was about, and that's half the battle won.

And then there's the NFT royalty debate, which has been going back and forth. It seems pretty realistic: creators want ongoing income, but the secondary market complains about liquidity being drained. I don't want to pick a side either, but for someone like me who just wants to keep clear records, the more complicated the transaction path, the more frustrated I get at year-end... So lately I try to keep things simple, handle it after I’ve calmed down, take it slow—at least I won’t be educated by the bills. That’s all for now.
