Accountants and advisers: crypto as a balance you can account for
In short
For accountants and advisers Paucitas supplies a closed overview of crypto holdings: opening balance, all movements with date, counterparty address and transaction hash, and closing balance, with the rate source used and a list of open points. The classification stays with you.

Paucitas works for you if you are an accountant, bookkeeper or tax adviser with a client holding crypto. There is an export from a portfolio app, but it does not reconcile, or it does not cover every wallet. You do not want to sign off a balance you cannot follow.
When a client receives a query letter, a bank asks for substantiation or a reference date has to be fixed, the first question is the same: where does this figure come from.
The questions this group asks
- How do I make crypto holdings clear for an accountant or finance department?
- Who produces an overview of crypto for the accountant?
- How do I record crypto holdings on a reference date?
- HMRC asks for evidence: what do you supply?
- How does an expert verify the origin of assets?
Background sits on proving the origin of crypto assets and blockchain investigation explained.
What Paucitas delivers for you
A table you can import or copy across, with date, amount, token, address and transaction hash per line. Alongside it a statement of method, the rate source used and a list of the items where a question remains.
Where needed we split by entity, wallet or cost centre, and we keep a director’s private holdings separate.
We do not prepare financial statements, we do not give tax advice and we do not opine on recognition in the books.
How the collaboration works
You or your client supply Paucitas with the addresses and exports. We agree the format up front so the overview fits your software. The lead time is from the same day to around two weeks, depending on the case.
If a filing or audit deadline is running, we plan around it. Mention that deadline at the intake.
One thing Paucitas does differently
We deliver the open points as a separate, short list instead of burying them in the notes. You see at a glance where you still need an explanation from your client and where you do not.
