Crypto can be a confusing space for those of us in the traditional finance and accounting world. In many senses, the way that cryptocurrencies and decentralized financial products work completely turn on their head the ways that we usually account for things. In the world of crypto, naming conventions aren't standardized, data is 24/7, there's no centralized pricing data to determine capital gains and losses with ease, to name just a few of the big issues facing accountants seeking to integrate crypto into their workstreams.

While many CPAs spend tens to hundreds of non-billable hours trying to figure out crypto for their clients, just to process a few more returns, this clearly isn't the most optimal path to success. What you need is enough knowledge to expand your advisory and reporting practice into the crypto realm, but not too much that you run out of time to serve the other traditional accounting scopes.

This is where Ledgible fits into the crypto tax accountant workflow. The Ledgible Product Suite offers software tools that integrate with all tax and accounting software solutions, both on the professional and consumer side. This is done either through API connections or direct file upload. For accountants looking to master crypto tax, signing up for Ledgible allows them to handle their crypto clients in one place.
