EDIT: added more context below. I'm dealing with a situation and need some guidance.

DeFi yield farming tax treatment. I've been dealing with this for about 2 weeks now and the situation isn't improving.

I have already tried to resolve this directly but got conflicting advice.

Has anyone been through something similar? What worked for you?

Real talk: i've dealt with this before.

A lot of people mess up by is having everything documented. I'd recommend keeping a detailed timeline instead 🤷.

Coinbase locked my account during KYC re-verification. I submitted all documents 6 weeks ago — still no response. Has $23K stuck there. Filed CFPB complaint and got a response within 72 hours. That's the route to take.
