What is FTX US?

FTX US was a centralized crypto exchange for U.S. customers, used for spot crypto trading, transfers, and balance tracking across accounts and subaccounts. It also offered an NFT marketplace, including support for Solana and Ethereum NFTs, before trading and withdrawals were halted in November 2022; account balances and transaction history are now accessed through the FTX claims portal. For tax reporting, FTX US users may need a clear record of past crypto transactions, and this guide explains how to handle that with Coinpanda.

How to do your FTX US taxes

You can easily report your FTX US taxes by connecting your FTX US account to Coinpanda using the API or by uploading a CSV file. Coinpanda automatically imports your transactions, calculates your capital gains and income, and generates ready-to-file tax reports for FTX US.

* The FTX US API does not provide data for USD to stablecoin conversions. FTX US does also not allow exporting these transactions from their web interface. The only solution now is to add these transactions manually for your portfolio to be accurate.

The FTX US API is no longer operational following the FTX collapse, and the only way to import historical transactions is with CSV files. We encourage all users to export all CSV files as explained below as soon as possible since this will most likely not be possible in the near future.

When you have all your CSV files exported, you should upload all files to Coinpanda to ensure the tax report will be as accurate as possible. Coinpanda supports all CSV files and transaction types from FTX International and FTX US.

Does FTX US provide tax documents?

Typically, exchanges don't provide finalized tax documents for their customers, and FTX US is no exception. It's hard for an exchange to build tax logic that serves customers across many jurisdictions. Hence, it's more practical for a customer to use a tax platform like Coinpanda.

How are FTX US transactions taxed?

The exact tax implications on FTX US transactions depend on which country you live in and the type of transactions you have made. In general, you must pay either capital gains tax or income tax on your cryptocurrency transactions on FTX US.

  • Capital gains tax: Whenever you sell a cryptocurrency for more than you purchased it for, you generate a capital gain. On the other hand, if you sell the cryptocurrency for less than you paid initially, you have a capital loss, which can, in most cases, offset other gains.
  • Income tax: Earned cryptocurrency on FTX US, such as staking, interest, bonuses, and referral rewards, is typically treated as taxable income and must be reported on your tax return.

To learn more about how FTX US transactions are taxed in your country, we recommend reading our in-depth guides to cryptocurrency taxes.

How to file your FTX US taxes

First, you must calculate capital gains and income from all taxable transactions on FTX US. When you have this information ready, you can report capital gains and income together with other forms of income, such as employment and dividends, in your annual tax return.

To calculate your capital gains, you must first export a complete history of all transactions made on FTX US. Once you have this data, you can calculate your capital gains or losses by determining the price at which you bought the cryptocurrency (your cost basis) and the price at which you sold it (your proceeds). Luckily, Coinpanda can help you with this and generate ready-to-file tax forms quickly and easily.

After downloading your FTX US tax statements from Coinpanda, the last step is to report the capital gains and income on your tax return before the deadline. Most countries allow you to self-declare taxes online in 2026, but you can also get help from a professional tax accountant to file taxes for you.
