Common Errors

The 3 Most Common Causes of "Missing Transactions" in CoinTracking

"Missing Transactions" in CoinTracking: The counterpart of a deposit or withdrawal is missing from the data. TX-Partner encounters these scenarios most frequently.

01_SCAM_SPAM

Scam & Spam Token/NFTs

Unwanted airdrops and scam tokens create deposits without counterparts. CoinTracking cannot assign these and lists them as "missing transactions". The most common cause in CoinTracking.

02_API_IMPORTS

Incomplete API Imports

Exchange APIs don't export everything. Internal transfers, staking rewards, or older transactions are often missing. CSV supplements are necessary for deposits and withdrawals to be fully paired. Exchange history overview →

03_BRIDGES_CROSSCHAIN

Bridges & Cross-Chain Swaps

In cross-chain swaps, Asset A goes out and Asset B comes in – CoinTracking doesn't recognize the connection because different assets are involved. With bridges, the target chain is often missing from the import: For example, if you bridge from Ethereum to Base but only imported the Ethereum address, you have a withdrawal without a deposit on the other side.

Why This Matters

Unpaired Deposits/Withdrawals = Cascading Errors in Tax Report

"Missing Transactions" means: The counterpart of a transaction is missing from the data. Example: Only the withdrawal from Binance exists, but the deposit to your own wallet was never imported. CoinTracking cannot recognize the transfer because one side is missing. These gaps cause cascading errors in the tax report.
