Freezing protects the figures behind a tax report you have already generated, so that later edits or product updates cannot change a return you have filed.
CoinTracker automatically freezes your transaction history when you download a tax report, through the tax year you downloaded and covers every transaction up to that point. For example, if you downloaded a 2024 report, everything from 2024 and earlier is frozen.
To see which tax years are affected, open the Taxes page and check the frozen status for each year. For how freezing works in general, see how CoinTracker freezes transactions when you download tax forms.
How do I edit a frozen transaction?
You can still edit a frozen transaction, reimport a wallet, or add transactions from a year you have already filed. CoinTracker shows a confirmation message before saving, so you can confirm you want to change data behind a report you filed. You do not need to unfreeze first.
Migrated from Universal to Per-Wallet tracking
For US users: If you migrated from Universal to Per-Wallet cost basis tracking and have downloaded a tax report, CoinTracker freezes your transaction history through the tax year you downloaded automatically.
Transactions in your locked migration period cannot be edited while you are on Per-Wallet cost basis. To edit one — or to return to Universal tracking — switch back to Universal cost basis from your Tax settings.
For the steps and what changes when you do, see how to switch back to Universal cost basis tracking.
