I started keeping track of my trading records purely because I was afraid of staring at a bunch of on-chain transfers and exchange transaction histories at the end of the year, then getting emotional and thinking "Forget it, I won't report anymore"... and every time I do, I get more anxious. Now I just casually write a couple of sentences about each deposit, withdrawal, or on-chain transfer—just plain language: this one is for arbitrage, this one is for rebalancing, this one is for moving to the cold wallet to sleep. Honestly, the record isn't for perfection; it's so I can clearly explain what I was doing at the time later on, to avoid shooting myself in the foot. Recently, there's been talk about increased taxes and compliance tightening in certain regions, and I realize the biggest impact on me is the expectation around deposits and withdrawals: just the thought of possibly needing to provide documents or explain the source makes me more grateful that I was too lazy to rush and instead organized my transaction history. The most boring operations end up being the most lifesaving.
