Coinpanda vs Dime

Coinpanda combines cryptocurrency tax reporting with portfolio tracking across exchanges and wallets. It imports transactions through exchange API keys, CSV or XLSX files, a generic Excel file, or manual entry. The tracker covers futures, staking, DeFi, and NFTs, and calculates cost basis using FIFO, LIFO, HIFO, or ACB. Coinpanda automatically generates capital-gains and income tax reports, with exports including IRS Form 8949 and Schedule D. Its integrations include 2,478 sources and more than 450 DeFi protocols. Country coverage includes the US, Canada, Australia, the UK, France, Italy, Ireland, Japan, and more than 60 other countries. The Android and iOS apps track markets, trades, transactions, profits, and tax reports. Coinpanda says exchange connections use read-only access and it does not request wallet private keys. The free plan allows 25 transactions per tax year. Paid plans start at $79 a year for 100 transactions on Hodler.

Dime is a free, open-source command-line tool that calculates United Kingdom cryptoasset taxes from a transaction spreadsheet. It accepts CSV data containing fields such as dates, operations, market values, assets, quantities, fees, and income, with receive, send, swap, and transfer operations. After processing, users can review figures for available tax years and see their current fiat balance. The format supports marking sent and received assets as non-fungible, including guidance for an NFT minted from multiple NFTs. Dime runs locally and stores transactions and computed figures in a SQLite database inside the user’s .dime folder. Installation documentation covers Composer, a PHAR archive, Docker, and an experimental standalone application. Composer and PHAR installations require PHP 8.2 and BCMath; Docker requires Docker and sh or Bash. The project targets people familiar with UK tax rules who want local processing.
