Crypto accounting for auditors

Auditing crypto means proving existence, ownership, completeness, and valuation — usually from a client's messy exports. CryptaCount gives you the trail, the recalculation, and the on-chain verification to do it with confidence.

The crypto audit challenge

Crypto holdings are hard to audit: ownership lives behind wallet addresses, completeness spans many exchanges and chains, valuation depends on point-in-time pricing, and cost basis depends on a methodology you have to be able to test. Client spreadsheets rarely give you the evidence you need.

What CryptaCount gives the audit

• Complete, traceable trail. Every GL line drills down to the underlying transaction — assertion-level evidence for completeness and accuracy.
• Independent recalculation. Cost basis and gains are computed by a defined, testable method (12 supported), so you can re-perform and tie out.
• On-chain verification. Holdings and transactions tie back to on-chain data via our own infrastructure — supporting existence and ownership.
• Hashed records. Double-entry entries carry integrity hashing, giving you verifiable, tamper-evident records.
• Point-in-time valuation. Valuations sourced from our pricing engine, with the basis transparent.
• Exportable evidence. Pull the detail, reconciliations, and reports you need into your working papers.

Built around the assertions you test

• Existence / ownership — on-chain verification of addresses and balances
• Completeness — full ingestion across exchanges, wallets, and chains
• Valuation — transparent, point-in-time pricing
• Accuracy — independent, re-performable cost-basis calculation
• Methodology — the cost-basis method is explicit and consistent, not a black box; jurisdiction-mandated treatments (UK Section 104, Canada ACB) apply automatically
