Camuso CPA FAQs

Who is Camuso CPA best suited to work with?

Our practice focuses on high-net-worth cryptocurrency investors, professional traders, proprietary trading firms, market makers, and Web3 businesses with substantial accounting and tax needs. We work with clients whose financial activity requires specialized analysis, reliable records, and ongoing planning. We also serve select private clients with complex tax situations.

Can you reconstruct years of missing cryptocurrency transactions and cost basis?

Yes. Historical accounting and cost basis reconstruction are core areas of our practice. We work with investors whose records span years of exchanges, wallets, DeFi protocols, and missing transaction histories. Our work establishes supportable acquisition and disposition records, reconciles transfers, and addresses prior-year reporting where necessary. Explore cost basis reconstruction.

Can you help if my Form 1099-DA doesn't match my cryptocurrency records?

Yes. We reconcile broker-reported transactions against your underlying accounting and tax records. Missing cost basis, transferred assets, and historical discrepancies may require further investigation. Some issues can be resolved through targeted reconciliation, while others require more extensive historical accounting reconstruction.

Do you provide both prediction market tax and accounting services?

Yes. We advise prediction market traders and trading businesses on event contract tax characterization, reporting, and planning, as well as transaction reconciliation, trading subledgers, and financial reporting. Engagements can cover tax analysis, historical accounting, ongoing books, or coordinated accounting and tax work. Explore prediction market accounting.

Can you handle accounting for high-volume trading firms and market makers?

We work with proprietary trading firms and market makers whose trading activity can involve millions of fills across multiple venues. Our engagements address transaction-level reconciliation, trading subledgers, settlement accounting, company books, partnership reporting, and recurring close requirements. The scope depends on the platforms, records, and accounting systems involved.

Do you advise professional traders using perpetual futures and other derivatives?

Yes. Our professional trading work includes digital assets, prediction markets, perpetual futures, and other derivatives. We evaluate the applicable tax treatment, trading activity, funding payments, reporting obligations, and relevant entity considerations. The appropriate tax position depends on the contracts and the trader's circumstances. Learn about our trading firm practice.

What accounting and tax services do you provide to Web3 businesses?

We work with Web3 startups, protocols, and other blockchain businesses on historical accounting, on-chain transaction reconciliation, company books, financial reporting, and business tax compliance. We also advise on the accounting and tax treatment of token-related activity and complex business transactions. Explore Web3 accounting services.

Can you help with IRS crypto notices, unfiled returns, or prior tax errors?

Yes. We assist clients with IRS notices, examinations, delinquent filings, and historical cryptocurrency tax reporting problems. Where necessary, we first reconstruct or reconcile the underlying accounting records to determine the appropriate reporting and resolution approach. Please identify any IRS response deadlines in your inquiry.

Can I engage Camuso CPA without replacing my current accountant?

Yes, depending on the scope. We can provide specialized historical accounting, transaction reconciliation, technical tax analysis, or defined advisory work alongside an existing CPA, attorney, or internal finance team. We also accept broader accounting and tax engagements where appropriate.

How are your engagements priced?

We establish the scope, deliverables, and fees before beginning work. Pricing reflects the complexity of the activity, quality of available records, and services required. Complex matters may begin with a paid assessment to determine the appropriate scope. Additional work is addressed separately rather than added without agreement.

Do I need to be located near your offices?

No. Our specialist practice works with clients throughout the United States and with international clients where appropriate. Most engagements are conducted remotely through secure document sharing, scheduled meetings, and direct communication with our accounting and tax professionals.

What happens after I submit a consultation request?

We review your situation, the activity involved, and the services you need to determine whether the engagement is a good fit. If additional analysis is needed to establish the scope, we may recommend a paid assessment. Please describe the relevant tax years, trading venues, approximate activity, and any upcoming deadlines.
