Practical guidance for accounting teams working with digital assets
This book offers a clear, structured approach to the accounting, valuation, reporting, and control issues that arise when businesses hold, trade, earn, or manage cryptocurrencies and other digital assets. It is designed for accountants, controllers, auditors, finance leaders, and policy owners who need more than theory. Each chapter translates complex topics into decisions, journal-entry logic, and reporting considerations that can be applied in practice.
The content moves from foundational definitions to advanced reporting topics, covering recognition, classification, initial measurement, impairment, fair value, inventory treatment, and intangible asset considerations. It also addresses modern use cases such as mining, staking, lending, token sales, merchant payments, and token-to-token exchanges, helping readers understand how business model and arrangement terms affect accounting outcomes.
What the book covers
- How to identify and classify digital assets under IFRS and U.S. GAAP
- Initial cost basis, including fees, gas costs, custody setup, and non-cash consideration
- Subsequent measurement through cost, revaluation, impairment, and fair value approaches
- Revenue, expense, and gain or loss recognition for digital asset activities
- Inventory accounting, lower of cost and net realizable value, and write-down treatment
- Impairment testing for long-held holdings and portfolio assets
- Valuation governance, fair value hierarchy, and market data selection
- Internal controls, reconciliations, custody risk, and audit documentation
- Accounting for staking, lending, custody, and other on-chain arrangements
- Disclosures, presentation, consolidation, FX effects, and special situations
Why it is useful
- Built around real accounting judgments, not just technical definitions
- Explains where policy design, evidence, and internal controls matter most
- Includes practical examples for purchases, swaps, transfers, rewards, and sales
- Supports audit readiness with documentation and reconciliation guidance
Whether you are drafting accounting policies, preparing financial statements, evaluating valuation techniques, or reviewing digital asset controls, this book provides a grounded reference for consistent and supportable reporting. It is especially helpful for organizations that need to connect blockchain activity with formal accounting treatment and reliable financial statement disclosure.
