What keeps crypto founders up at night

Swiss digital asset regulation is specific and evolving. These are the six issues we see most often — each one carrying real tax and regulatory consequences if handled incorrectly.

🏷

Token classification

Under Swiss GAAP, tokens must be classified as payment, utility or asset tokens. Wrong classification triggers tax and FINMA issues that are far harder to correct retrospectively.

🔁

DeFi transaction volume

Hundreds of on-chain swaps, yield farm harvests, liquidity pool entries. We reconcile every transaction to CHF at the spot rate — no estimates, no gaps in your audit trail.

Staking & mining income

ESTV treats staking rewards as income at fair market value on receipt date. We calculate, book, and declare every reward correctly so your tax return withstands scrutiny.

📄

ICO / TGE proceeds

Token sale proceeds must be correctly classified as liability, equity, or revenue. Mis-booking creates audit risk and draws FINMA attention to your filing at exactly the wrong moment.

🏛

FINMA licensing requirements

Depending on your business model, you may need a fintech licence, banking licence, or SRO membership. We advise on the correct category and prepare the financials required for the application.

🌐

Cross-border crypto transfers

FATF travel rule, correspondent bank requirements, and Swiss AML obligations apply to crypto businesses. We ensure your books support compliance and survive a regulatory review.

Full compliance — on-chain to tax return

One firm covering bookkeeping, tax, VAT, payroll, formation, and audit. No need to manage three separate advisors who have never dealt with digital assets.

We connect to your exchange APIs (Kraken, Binance, Coinbase), on-chain wallets, and accounting software. Historical data imported and reconciled.

03

Monthly compliance

"We had 18 months of unreconciled DeFi transactions. The team reconstructed our books in three weeks, filed two years of back-taxes, and got us audit-ready. No other Zürich firm would touch our file."

Crypto accounting — your questions

Yes. Corporate crypto gains (trading profits, staking income, ICO proceeds) are subject to Swiss corporate income tax. Unlike private individuals in Switzerland (where crypto gains are often tax-free), Swiss companies must declare all crypto income. We calculate and file correctly.
It depends on your activity. Exchanges, custodians, and token issuers often need a fintech licence, banking licence, or SRO membership. We assess your model and prepare the required financial statements for the licence application.
We use crypto accounting software (Koinly, Accointing, or Cryptio) integrated with your wallets and exchange APIs. Every swap, yield farm harvest, and liquidity event is mapped to CHF at the ESTV spot rate. We then import into your accounting system.
Most cryptocurrency exchange transactions are VAT-exempt under Swiss MWSTG. However, advisory services, NFT sales, and certain platform services may be VATable. We assess your specific revenue streams and file accordingly.
Yes. We prepare FINMA-compliant financial statements, capital adequacy calculations, and AML documentation required for fintech licence, SRO membership, or banking licence applications.
