Identify your sources.
Know the exchanges (like Coinbase), wallets (like MetaMask), and blockchains (like Ethereum) with which you had digital asset activity (like buying, selling, holding) in 2025.
Identify if you did any of the following in 2025.
Bought, sold, or converted crypto.
Sent digital assets from one source (like a wallet) to another.
Bought, sold, or minted NFTs.
Invested in DeFi (Decentralized Finance) instruments (like staking or lending).
Check if TurboTax supports your sources.
Gain/Loss CSVs are no longer supported in TurboTax.
For supported transaction CSVs, sources including Coinbase, Coinbase Pro, PayPal, CashApp, Binance.US, and more.
If you have Coinbase and you participated in an activity besides trading crypto, we recommend using the Coinbase transaction CSV.

What’s the difference between a gain/loss CSV and a transaction CSV?
A gain/loss csv is a document that exchanges provide that shows your sales from the current tax year. It's best used when you only have one account and haven’t transferred assets between exchanges/wallets.
If you have transferred assets, a gain/loss CSV can’t determine cost basis, leading to an inaccurate report. Additionally, an exchange may report a withdrawal as a taxable sale when it shouldn’t.
A transaction CSV is a document that exchanges and other accounts provide that shows every transaction since the beginning of your activity on that platform. It's best used when you have multiple accounts/exchanges and have transferred assets between them.
