Calculating crypto taxes manually? That's a recipe for headaches and miscalculations.

There's actually a smarter way to handle this - setting up a Google Sheets calculator that pulls data through APIs. The automation does the heavy lifting while you maintain full control over your calculations.

The beauty of this approach is the transparency. Every transaction gets tracked, every calculation stays visible, and you're not relying on black-box software to crunch your numbers. Plus, once you've got the spreadsheet configured, tax season becomes significantly less painful.

For anyone dealing with multiple wallets or frequent trading, this kind of setup can save hours of manual work and reduce those costly errors that come from copy-pasting transaction data.
