Sound familiar?
Not sure your accountant actually understands crypto?
Most general accountants have a working knowledge of self assessment and not much else. Crypto tax is genuinely awkward — pooling rules, the treatment of staking rewards, DeFi disposals, multiple exchanges, missing transaction histories. If your current accountant has never had to think carefully about whether a coin swap triggers a disposal, the return probably reflects that.
- Gains calculated incorrectly because pooling rules and same-day matching were not applied
- Staking or mining income reported in the wrong box — or missed entirely
- No idea what your tax bill is going to be until it is already late
What a correct crypto return looks like
The numbers are worked through properly, the right HMRC rules applied, and your liability is visible before the deadline — not after. That is what you are paying for.
- Gains calculated using correct pooling, same-day, and 30-day bed-and-breakfasting rules
- Staking, mining, and DeFi income correctly categorised and reported as income where required
- Tax liability confirmed well ahead of the January deadline — no surprises
- Fixed fee agreed before any work starts — no hourly billing for a quick question
What clients say about working with us
A small practice with a strong track record. Every client dealt with directly by Joey — no juniors, no ticket queues.
Joey was super helpful, took care of everything and saved me money on my Self Assessment. Communicated everything throughout. I will be using his services again. Would definitely recommend.
Great company that have helped me out massively with my tax and VAT returns.
What the fixed fee covers
Three core areas, handled end to end. Every client deals directly with Joey — the person doing the work is the person answering the phone.
Crypto Capital Gains Calculation
Every disposal identified and calculated correctly — coin swaps, sales to fiat, gifts, and lost assets where HMRC guidance applies. Pooling rules, same-day matching, and the 30-day bed-and-breakfasting rule applied to each asset. You get a clear gains summary before it goes on the return.
Included as standardStaking, Mining and DeFi Income
Staking rewards, mining income, liquidity pool returns, and airdrops treated correctly for income tax purposes — not lumped in with capital gains. HMRC’s position on each category is applied to your specific situation, not a one-size approach.
Included as standardSelf Assessment Filed and Done
Your full Self Assessment completed and filed, with your crypto gains and income figures sitting in the right boxes. You will know your tax bill before it is due, and the filing confirmation goes to you the same day it is submitted.

Why this practice over any other accountant
Three things that are genuinely different — not marketing claims dressed up as differentiators.
Crypto handled without the hand-waving
Most accountants will take an approximate approach to crypto and accept the risk that HMRC does not look closely. The pooling rules, same-day matching, and DeFi treatment are applied correctly because the work is done properly, not approximately. You will not need to explain what a disposal is before getting a useful answer.
Direct access, not a ticket queue
Every client deals with Joey directly — the person who reads your transaction history is the person who answers when you call. Contactable from 7am to 7pm Monday to Saturday by phone, WhatsApp, or email, and often Sundays too. Questions get answered the day you ask them.
Fixed fee, agreed before work starts
Crypto returns vary in complexity depending on how many exchanges, how many disposals, and whether staking or DeFi is involved. The fee is scoped to your actual situation and confirmed in writing before anything is filed. No hourly billing, no surprises when the invoice arrives.
Up and running in four straightforward steps
The process is designed to require as little from you as possible. Most clients are fully set up and their return underway within a few days of getting in touch.
Free initial chat
Call, WhatsApp, or email. We will talk through your crypto activity — exchanges used, rough number of transactions, whether staking or DeFi is involved — and give you a clear picture of what is needed. No obligation, no upsell.
Fixed quote in writing
After the call you receive a fixed fee scoped to the complexity of your return. One quote, in writing, before any work starts. If the scope changes you are told before any additional cost is incurred.
Send your transaction data
Export your transaction history from each exchange — most platforms provide a CSV. Where records are incomplete or messy, that is flagged early rather than discovered at filing time. You send the data; the calculation is handled from there.
Return filed, liability confirmed
Your Self Assessment is completed, the gains and income figures checked against your records, and the return filed. You receive the filing confirmation and know your tax bill — with enough time to plan for payment, not scramble for it.
“Joey always delivers a professional and efficient service. Highly recommend to everyone!”
Things most crypto investors ask first
Do you actually understand how crypto disposals, pooling rules, and staking income work — or will I be explaining it to you?
The pooling rules, same-day matching, 30-day bed-and-breakfasting, and the distinction between capital gains and income from staking or mining are applied correctly as a matter of course. HMRC’s crypto guidance is followed as it currently stands, including their position on DeFi, airdrops, and hard forks. You will not be starting from first principles.
What does it cost, and what is included?
The fee is fixed and scoped to the complexity of your return — primarily the number of exchanges, approximate volume of disposals, and whether staking, mining, or DeFi activity needs to be categorised as income. The quote is confirmed in writing before any work begins. There is no hourly billing and no charge for questions during the engagement.
My transaction history is a mess — missing records, multiple exchanges, some wallets I barely used. Can you still help?
Incomplete records are common and not a reason to avoid getting the return done correctly. Where data is missing, the gap is identified early and the options discussed — whether that is reconstructing from blockchain data, using reasonable estimates with appropriate disclosure, or flagging the limitation to HMRC. The return is filed with the most accurate picture possible, not the most convenient one.
Is there a long-term contract, or can I just use you for this year’s return?
No long-term contract. Some clients use JD Accountancy for a single Self Assessment and move on; others stay year to year. If your situation is simple enough to handle yourself next year, that will be said rather than retained unnecessarily. If you leave, you leave with clean records and nothing outstanding.
I traded across multiple exchanges and some no longer exist or have closed my account. What happens with those records?
Missing exchange records are unfortunately common, particularly where platforms have closed or restricted UK access. Blockchain explorers can recover wallet-level transaction histories for most major chains, and where that is not possible the position is disclosed to HMRC with a reasonable estimate rather than omitted entirely. The approach is documented in case HMRC ever asks.
How far in advance will I know what my crypto tax bill is going to be?
The goal is to have your liability confirmed well before the January Self Assessment deadline — typically once your transaction data is received and the calculation is complete, which for most clients means the bill is known months in advance. That gives you time to plan for the payment rather than find out on the 31st of January. If the gain is large enough to warrant a payment on account discussion, that will be raised at the same time.
