CoinTracking.info API Keys + Manual Entries for Cryptocurrency Exchange Tracking and Tax Reporting (United States IRS)

in #cryptocurrency7 years ago (edited)

here are my results using CoinTracking so far... the following exchanges support sending ALL required data via API Keys

  1. Coinbase
  2. GDAX
  3. HitBTC
  4. Cryptopia

as for these other exchanges, they don't provide ALL required data through API Keys

  1. Bittrex requires CSV files manually uploaded + manual entry of Deposits and Withdrawals + API Keys (because the API Keys only provide data for the past 30 days right now)

  2. Binance requires API Key + 3 CSV files manually uploaded for Transaction, Deposit, and Withdrawal History

  3. Cobinhood doesn't provide an API Key, nor does it even provide a dashboard with Transaction/Trade data, so I do not recommend using Cobinhood whatsoever at this time

  4. Livecoin (another exchange I don't highly recommend) provides all data through API Key, but the Secret Key must be provided on a daily basis for security reasons.. smh

  5. Tidex (another I don't recommend) requires API Key + manual Deposit and Withdrawal entries

When I tried using CT with Binance and Kucoin I didn't have good results. My transactions were wrong. It would attribute a transaction to the wrong coin. I found no way of editing individual transactions after bringing in with the CSV. So it seems I would have to manually enter each transaction to get them to be correct.

Did you check all yours and confirm you had the same thing showing in Binance as CT for all your imported transactions?

excellent question.. as of right now, CoinTracking states on their site that Binance API Keys are not operational.. therefore, I won't be using Binance, unless absolutely necessary, and if I do use it, I will enter the trades manually.. I recommend using Coinbase/GDAX, Bittrex, Cryptopia, or HitBTC in the meantime, as these exchanges have fully operational API Key integration for all trade and transfer history, and they have pretty much every coin you can imagine (for the most part) – also, if you ever need to start fresh with CoinTracking, due to discrepancies in the past, you can specify which date and time to receive API data from, starting with today for example.. just remember that certain exchanges don't work, or have limited funcitonality, and you may have to enter those trades, transactions, and transfer manually, or use CSV files (entering manually is probably easier and more accurate though) – good luck! : ]
