Get it free →"Most US crypto investors discovered the IRS problem too late. We exist to change that — starting with taxes, expanding into everything crypto education should cover."
For the first time in history, the IRS receives automatic reports of your crypto transactions — directly from your exchange. The era of informal, self-reported crypto investing is over. And most American investors have no idea what that actually means for them.
We built Cipher Academy because we watched friends and family blunder into avoidable IRS letters, costly audits, and tax bills that should never have happened. Not because they were trying to cheat. Because the rules changed faster than the education caught up.
Our guides are written in plain English by people who actually understand both crypto and US tax law. No accounting degree required. No jargon. No fear-mongering. Just the clear information that saves you money, time, and stress when it counts most.
This is just the beginning. Tax compliance is where we start — but Cipher Academy will grow into the complete education resource serious US crypto investors deserve: market fundamentals, strategy, risk management, and a community that doesn't waste your time.
Join the Cipher Academy community for ongoing IRS updates, market intelligence, and direct access to people who actually understand both crypto and US tax law.
