Forbes’ Best-In-State CPA: Trusted Crypto Tax Accountant Fueling Web3 Growth

Last Updated on August 8, 2025 by Patrick Camuso, CPA

In today’s fast paced financial world, the crypto community recognizes that staying ahead of the curve on regulatory changes and technological advancements is key, especially in the world of cryptocurrency.

The rise of digital assets has brought unprecedented opportunities and complexity for investors and businesses alike. We recognized this shift early and founded Camuso CPA with a vision to build tax and accounting systems for the future of finance, providing access to a trusted crypto tax accountant.

Since 2016, long before tax laws or institutional adoption existed, our team has been navigating the uncharted territory of cryptocurrency and blockchain.

By 2019 the IRS was actively asking taxpayers about their involvement in cryptocurrency transactions, so accurate crypto tax reporting was becoming a must. With many exchanges now reporting directly to the IRS, a thorough review of transactions is critical to ensure accurate reporting and avoid overstated taxable gains and penalties.

As the IRS’s reporting requirements get more detailed, the compliance process has become increasingly complicated, making precise crypto tax compliance more important than ever. We anticipated these changes early and positioned ourselves as a leader in helping clients protect their wealth while being fully compliant regarding tax implications .

Forbes named us one of the Best-in-State CPA firms in 2025 for our foresight, expertise and excellence in crypto tax services.

What We Built for Crypto Taxes Before the Market Caught Up

When we started serving crypto investors and businesses, existing tax frameworks were not equipped to handle the complexity of digital assets. Our first client, a Bitcoin miner, had been turned away by every other firm because of the complexity of his trades. We took on the challenge and built custom tools and methodologies for cryptocurrency.

Our solutions include wallet-level tracking systems that allow us to track every transaction precisely, advanced cost basis calculation methods to ensure accurate capital gain figures and custom reporting logic to handle even the most complex crypto transactions. This is important because tracking the cost basis, the original purchase price of cryptocurrency assets, is critical for tax reporting and determining capital gains or losses, ensuring proper payment of crypto tax.

Professionals in crypto tax services play a big role in helping clients track their cost basis accurately so they can be compliant and have financial clarity.Our services have delivered significant results for our clients such as recovering over $1 million in tax value from token misclassification errors and avoiding $200,000 in sales tax exposure for Web3 startups before their launch.

We have reconstructed over 45 wallets to calculate tax implications and saved clients $775,000 in missed savings and automated reconciliation processes that save clients over 15 hours per month.

Since failure to report cryptocurrency gains, even unintentionally, can be considered tax fraud with serious financial penalties, our approach ensures every transaction is tracked, reported, and the payment of taxes is handled accurately.

Our customized services help clients navigate the complexities of crypto tax compliance by offering expert advice and providing peace of mind and protection of their financial interests.

Customized services are often offered to address the unique challenges of cryptocurrency investments so each client’s specific needs are met with precision.
