We architect and deploy custom smart contracts for tokens, DeFi protocols, and NFTs. Our development process is built on security-first principles, utilizing battle-tested libraries like OpenZeppelin and formal verification tools to mitigate risk before a single line of code hits mainnet.
Tax-Lot Accounting for Fungible Token Trades
Smart Contract Development
Secure, audited smart contracts built for production from day one.
- Production-Ready Code: Contracts are built with
Solidity 0.8+and include comprehensive testing, gas optimization, and upgradeability patterns. - Full Audit Support: We prepare contracts for third-party audits and provide remediation, ensuring your protocol meets the highest security standards.
- End-to-End Delivery: From initial design to deployment and verification on
Ethereum,Polygon,Arbitrum, or other EVM chains, we handle the entire lifecycle.
Reduce your time-to-market and technical debt with contracts designed for scale, security, and seamless integration.
Core Engine Capabilities
Our tax-lot accounting engine is engineered for high-volume, multi-chain environments. We deliver the precision and reliability required for institutional-grade reporting and compliance.
FIFO, LIFO & HIFO Accounting
Automated calculation of capital gains/losses using your chosen accounting method (FIFO, LIFO, HIFO). Eliminates manual spreadsheet errors and ensures IRS/GAAP compliance.
Multi-Chain & Cross-Chain Reconciliation
Seamlessly aggregate and reconcile fungible token trades across Ethereum, Solana, Arbitrum, and other major L1/L2 networks into a single, unified cost-basis ledger.
Real-Time P&L & Portfolio Tracking
Monitor unrealized gains, realized P&L, and portfolio performance in real-time. Our engine processes every trade and transfer instantly for up-to-the-second accuracy.
Automated Wash Sale Detection
Intelligent detection of wash sale scenarios across wallets and assets to prevent compliance violations. Configurable rules for 30-day windows and identical/substantially identical security checks.
Granular Reporting & Data Export
Generate detailed reports for Form 8949, Schedule D, and internal audits. Export full transaction histories, cost-basis data, and P&L statements via API or CSV.
Enterprise-Grade Security & Audit Trail
SOC 2 Type II compliant infrastructure with immutable audit logs for every calculation. Data is encrypted at rest and in transit, ensuring full traceability and security.
Business Outcomes for Your Platform
Our tax-lot accounting engine delivers measurable infrastructure improvements, enabling your platform to scale with confidence and meet enterprise-grade financial standards.
Real-Time P&L Calculation
Calculate user portfolio profit and loss instantly for every trade, enabling dynamic margin requirements and real-time risk dashboards.
Audit-Ready Financial Reporting
Generate FIFO, LIFO, and HIFO cost-basis reports with immutable on-chain proof, simplifying year-end audits and regulatory compliance.
Automated Tax Form Generation
Automatically populate Form 8949 and Schedule D equivalents by jurisdiction, reducing operational overhead and user support tickets.
Scalable Multi-Chain Support
Process and reconcile fungible token trades across Ethereum, Solana, and Layer 2s from a single, unified accounting ledger.
Enterprise-Grade Security & Uptime
Deploy with confidence using our SOC 2 Type II compliant infrastructure, featuring robust disaster recovery and data integrity checks.
Reduced Engineering Burden
Eliminate 6-12 months of in-house development time and ongoing maintenance costs for complex tax-lot accounting logic.

Our Implementation Process
We deliver production-ready tax-lot accounting in weeks, not months. Our proven process ensures accuracy, compliance, and seamless integration with your existing systems.
Discovery & Requirements Analysis
We conduct a deep-dive workshop to map your specific token types, trading venues, and reporting needs. We define the precise FIFO, LIFO, or HIFO accounting methods required for your jurisdiction.
Data Pipeline Integration
Our engineers connect to your data sources—exchange APIs (Coinbase, Binance), on-chain indexers (The Graph), and internal databases—to establish a real-time, normalized feed of all fungible token transactions.
Core Engine Implementation
We deploy our battle-tested accounting engine, configured for your rules. It processes millions of trades to calculate precise cost basis, realized gains/losses, and generate audit trails for every lot.
Security Audit & Validation
Every implementation undergoes a final validation cycle. We reconcile outputs against manual calculations for a sample period and perform a security review of data access and storage configurations.
Launch & Ongoing Support
We manage the production launch and provide dedicated technical support. Includes monitoring, quarterly updates for new tax regulations, and consultation on complex corporate actions like forks and airdrops.
Frequently Asked Questions
Get clear answers on our methodology, timeline, and support for building compliant tax-lot accounting systems for fungible token trades.
We deliver a production-ready, audited tax-lot accounting module in 4-6 weeks for a standard implementation. This includes requirements analysis, system design, smart contract development, integration with your existing trade data, and a full security audit. Complex integrations with multiple DEXs or custom FIFO/LIFO/HIFO logic may extend the timeline, which we scope and quote upfront.
