Expert crypto-focused IRS representation from a CPA who knows exactly how the agency targets digital asset holders, and how to resolve every notice type.
The IRS receives 1099 data from exchanges and cross-references your return. If crypto transactions are missing, you receive a CP2000 proposing additional tax, penalties, and interest, often inflated because the IRS assumes zero cost basis on your sales.
The IRS can identify certain large or unusual bank transactions through information reporting, audits, exchange records, and data-matching programs. Significant fiat transfers connected to crypto activity that do not align with reported income or capital gains could result in IRS scrutiny or follow-up inquiries.
Since 2024, every taxpayer must answer the digital asset question on Form 1040. Answering "yes" without proper reporting, or answering "no" when exchange records say otherwise, creates an immediate audit trigger.
Crypto-related IRS notices by year
*2026 projected. Sources: IRS enforcement data, Congressional testimony, industry estimates.
Crypto-related IRS notices have grown from roughly 10,000 in 2020 to a projected 425,000 in 2026 as exchange 1099 reporting matures and matching programs expand.
Every filer must now answer the digital asset question. A wrong or missing answer is its own compliance issue, independent of the underlying transactions.
Exchanges are now required to report gross proceeds directly to the IRS, dramatically increasing automated CP2000 notices for unreported crypto activity.
We analyze the notice type, proposed amounts, response deadlines, and the specific IRS unit that issued it, so we know exactly what we are dealing with before drafting a single word.
We pull transaction history from every exchange, wallet, and DeFi protocol involved. Missing records get reconstructed using on-chain data and forensic accounting methods.
We draft a formal response with supporting documentation, cost-basis schedules, and legal citations, formatted to the standard IRS examiners expect from professional representatives.
We negotiate directly with the IRS on your behalf, secure the best possible resolution, and implement future compliance safeguards so you never receive another surprise notice.
