Recently I started补ing up my transaction records, and only then did I realize the hardest part isn’t calculating profit and loss—it’s that you literally don’t remember why you impulsively clicked on that trade in the first place...

I don’t regret the outcome; I regret that I usually think it’s troublesome to leave any trace, and by the end of the year, during reconciliation, people just... disappear.

Now it’s pretty crude: build separate tables for exchange/on-chain addresses, have a dedicated entry for deposit/withdrawal records, and keep screenshots with timestamps. For on-chain activity, just jot down the Tx hash and a short note (airdrop/interactions/transfers), otherwise later it’ll all turn into “what was this transaction again.”

As for those recent social mining and fan tokens— they hype it up like attention can be mined. In plain terms, it’s more like treating your attention as liquidity. For someone like me who sees emotions hit a high point and just wants to pull out, records need to be kept even more completely, so that in the end it doesn’t get mistaken on my tax form for me being the bag-holder.

For now, just do it this way—fill it in slowly. Don’t wait for an explosion at the end of the year.
