CoinTracker CSV to Excel / Google Sheets
Excel / Google Sheets won't take your CoinTracker CSV directly — TurboTax removed crypto CSV import in January 2026 and the legacy importer capped at ~4,000 rows. Upload your export here and download a CSV that imports without the cap.
Why CoinTracker users get stuck at Excel / Google Sheets
The CoinTracker details that trip up a clean Excel / Google Sheets filing — and how the converter handles each.
Note 01
CoinTracker exposes both a Form 8949 CSV and a TurboTax CSV — both carry the same lots and either one uploads here.
Note 02
Lots transferred in from an external wallet often come back with Unknown cost basis when CoinTracker never saw the original purchase.
Note 03
The Tax Loss Harvesting export lists realized gains too, but it isn't a substitute for the Form 8949 report at filing time.

Open Excel or Google Sheets and create a new blank spreadsheet.

-
3
Confirm comma as the delimiter so each field lands in its own column.

CoinTracker to Excel / Google Sheets FAQ
Which CoinTracker export should I upload?
Upload the CoinTracker Form 8949 CSV from Tax Center → the tax year → Tax Reports. CoinTracker exposes both a Form 8949 CSV and a TurboTax CSV — both carry the same lots and either one uploads here.
What exactly do I download?
A Form 8949 CSV — one row per disposal with description, acquisition and sale dates, proceeds, cost basis, gain/loss, and any wash sale adjustment. Open it in Excel or Google Sheets, or hand it to your CPA.
Does the 4,000-row limit apply here?
No. The ~4,000-row ceiling was specific to TurboTax's old crypto CSV importer. A plain CSV worksheet has no row cap, so even a heavy CoinTracker trading year comes through in full.
Are wash sales handled?
If your CSV includes wash sale figures, they pass through using the standard crypto codes (322 short-term, 324 long-term). The IRS has not formally extended the wash sale rule to digital assets for the 2025 filing year, so we honor whatever your source reports rather than inferring new adjustments.
Is my file stored anywhere?
No. Your upload is processed in memory and deleted when the conversion finishes. The output bundle stays available for 24 hours, then is removed. There's no account to create.
