Rafael is a practicing CPA who has prepared crypto tax returns since 2018 — hundreds of them, from single DCA buyers to miners with depreciation schedules. He has opened, funded, and rolled over real accounts at every bitcoin IRA provider reviewed on this site.
He spent a decade at a regional accounting firm before specializing in digital-asset taxation. At Bitcoin Almanack he writes the IRA reviews, the tax guide, and the cost-basis explainers — reviewed each season against current IRS guidance, with dates on every claim.
