Recently, everyone in the group has been talking about interest rate cut expectations, the US dollar index moving, and how risk assets follow the hype or retreat, but what worries me more is the moment of tax reporting at the end of the year when I have to review my trading records... I honestly advise myself not to wait until December to do the review.
My current approach is pretty simple: every time I cross-chain, exchange coins, then stake again, or earn points—these operations that seem like I haven't sold but are actually quite messy—I just copy the transaction hash and take a screenshot and put them into a spreadsheet, with a note saying "why I did this."
Otherwise, by then, all I’ll have left are a bunch of addresses and "who I am and where I am."
Anyway, even for low-risk main holdings, I keep a record, and for high-volatility side assets, I definitely don’t pretend to have a good memory—just stay alive first.
Recently, the group has also started sharing templates with each other, and the atmosphere is pretty good, not so competitive.
