Identify each account and reporting period
Record the platform, account holder, period of use and available export types. Keep business and personal accounts distinct. A current dashboard balance is not a complete historical record. Note missing periods, closed accounts and changes in account structure without assuming that one export covers everything.
Preserve export settings
For authorized exports, record the date, time zone, selected filters, fields and person who obtained the file. Keep an untouched source copy. A transaction history, trade history and deposit-withdrawal report can describe different events. Do not merge them without retaining definitions and source references.
Keep reversals, fees and internal transfers visible
Identify how the platform records canceled orders, fees, internal transfers and corrections. An entry that looks duplicated may represent a different stage of the same event. Flag uncertain relationships for technical review rather than deleting rows to simplify a total. Preserve the original ordering and identifiers.
Connect the export to the individual account
A technical file should support, not replace, the person’s chronology. Identify which actions you personally took and what contemporaneous records support that statement. SAG can organize the index and questions for counsel; qualified specialists evaluate technical interpretation, tracing and financial calculations.

Is a screenshot of my balance enough?
It does not usually provide the full history or export context. Preserve available source records and ask counsel what collection is needed.
Sources and a defined preparation assignment
Official context: IRS: Digital assets and transaction records. Sources checked November 6, 2026. Tax recordkeeping guidance does not determine criminal liability or sentencing loss. Counsel evaluates the applicable law, dates and individual facts.
Work directly with Joseph to define the scope, authorized recipients and review dates. Agreed deliverables can include a personal and professional chronology, indexed supporting records, factual questions for counsel and a practical preparation schedule. SAG does not manage legal responses or provide forensic tracing or valuation opinions. An engagement does not automatically establish privilege.
SAG serves clients nationwide from New Jersey, with travel arranged for cases. SAG is not a law firm. No charging decision, sentence, placement or release date is guaranteed.
