As our accounting landscape changes, we remain competitive by more than just number crunching. As accountants, we must cultivate strong client relationships to foster trust, loyalty, and long-term partnerships. We need to track data points that are traceable, comparable, and sharable with the rest of the team members assisting our clients. Client Relationship Management (CRM) systems offer accountants a powerful tool to streamline processes and enhance overall client satisfaction.
Tax Loss Harvesting with Cryptocurrency
Tyler Menzer, CPA, PhD
In the Fall of 2025, Bitcoin reached an all-time high of over $120,000. Since then, it fell over 40% to under $70,000 in the first quarter of 2026, before slightly recovering, currently resting around $75,000 as of this writing. With the steep drop in the price of Bitcoin and other cryptocurrencies, a common question from taxpayers is whether they can use the current losses to offset their other income. Large investors and professionals such as Grant Cardone and Shehan Chandrasekera (Head of Tax Strategy at Cointracker) have suggested that cryptocurrency can be sold and bought back immediately to claim the tax benefits.
