Lately I've been a bit anxious about "taxes/declarations," honestly I'm not afraid to pay, but I'm worried about flipping through records at the end of the year until my eyes go blind... My current lazy method is: every time I switch pools, cross chains, claim airdrops/rewards, I just take a quick screenshot, then put the transaction hash into a spreadsheet, with notes like "what I did + roughly why," otherwise in a couple of months I won't remember whether it's earnings or principal moving around. Stablecoin strategies are like snack packs, the more transactions there are, the more the records explode.
A colleague also complained a few days ago about how on-chain games with inflation kick in, studios enter the scene, coin prices spiral downward, and in the end, the bills pile up and it's even harder to reconcile... Anyway, I now prefer to do less fuss, keep full records, so I don't have to argue with myself at the end of the year. That's it for now.
