Prove where your crypto wealth came from

Buying years ago and cashing out now means bridging a decade with evidence — only possible if you can show the chain from money to coin and back.

The chain you must show

It starts with legal income: salary, savings, a sale or a gift, then how that money reached a platform and what you bought.

The last link is the payout: which coins were sold, at what price, into which account.

  • Source: payslip, statement, deed
  • Purchase: orders and deposits
  • Custody: addresses or account statements
  • Sale and payout: orders and bank receipt

When evidence is missing

Defunct exchanges are a known problem; use old bank statements, email confirmations and on-chain transfers to your own address.

Write a short statement naming the gaps honestly.

Mining, staking and airdrops

Show the source: pool statements, validator addresses or the airdrop contract, with value at receipt.

Record that value immediately; reconstructing later causes disputes.

Maintaining the file

Update quarterly and store it outside the platform with a backup.

A complete file turns a months-long bank review into days.

Najczęstsze pytania

How long should I keep evidence?

As long as you hold the position and at least the statutory retention period afterwards; with crypto, longer is wiser.

What if my exchange no longer exists?

Use bank statements, emails, on-chain transfers and screenshots, and state which documents are missing.

Does a screenshot count as evidence?

Only as support, combined with statements and on-chain data.
