Crypto Tax CPA | 1099-DA & DeFi Specialists
Monaco CPA LLC is a virtual-first CPA firm headquartered in Livingston, New Jersey, specializing exclusively in cryptocurrency taxation and digital asset accounting. Founded by Gregory Monaco, CPA & MBA, we provide audit-proof tax strategies for high-net-worth investors, active traders, and blockchain businesses nationwide.
FEATURED IN: Yahoo Finance (December 2025) — Quoted on cryptocurrency valuation and cross-border payments infrastructure.
WHY CRYPTO INVESTORS CHOOSE US: We handle the complex scenarios that break standard tax software: cross-chain bridging, DeFi liquidity pools, staking rewards, wrapped assets, and multi-wallet portfolios. While generalist firms rely on automated reports, we manually reconcile the "missing cost basis" data that often triggers IRS Letter 6173 and CP2000 notices.
SPECIALIZED SERVICES:
- Form 1099-DA Compliance — Expert reconciliation of broker-reported gross proceeds against actual wallet data to prevent overpayment on phantom gains
- DeFi & Staking Income — Accurate application of Revenue Ruling 2023-14's Dominion and Control standard for proper income timing
- Wallet-Based Basis Tracking — Full implementation of Rev. Proc. 2024-28 requirements, transitioning clients from the now-prohibited universal average cost method
- NFT Tax Strategy — Application of IRS Notice 2023-27's look-through rule to determine capital gains vs. 28% collectibles treatment
- Tax-Loss Harvesting — Economic substance-compliant strategies that survive IRS scrutiny under IRC §7701(o)
- New Jersey Tax Planning — Specialized strategies for NJ residents navigating the state's lack of capital loss carryovers
- IRS Audit Representation — Licensed CPA defense for crypto audits, responding directly to IRS and state inquiries
WHO WE SERVE: DeFi protocol users, high-frequency traders, crypto miners, staking operators, and NFT creators.
CREDENTIALS: Gregory Monaco, CPA (New Jersey) & MBA. Serving clients in NJ, NY, and all 50 states via secure client
