Regulatory Reporting
STATUS: STUB — This skill outlines planned capabilities for crypto tax and regulatory reporting. All generated output must be reviewed by a qualified tax professional before filing. Nothing in this skill constitutes tax or legal advice.
Overview
Track and generate required regulatory reports for cryptocurrency trading activity. Covers U.S. federal forms (IRS Form 8949, Schedule D), FinCEN foreign account reporting (FBAR), state-specific crypto obligations, large-transaction flagging, and deadline tracking.
Crypto tax reporting is complex and evolving. Rules change frequently, cost-basis methods vary by jurisdiction, and DeFi activities (swaps, LP positions, airdrops, staking rewards) have ambiguous treatment under current guidance. This skill provides a structured framework for organizing trade data into the formats regulators expect — but a tax professional must validate every filing.
