every purchase can be a tax lot like we get for stocks we purchase at brokerages. then we can select the lot we are selling to specifically target the amount of loss or short-term/long term nature

Email notification to set purchase date for cost basis calculation

Is there a way that Cointracker or Coinbase could contact you when you receive a deposit to allow you to set the purchase date? It would solve the issue of not knowing how long the cryptocurrency has been held without automatically defaulting to the day it was received.
We already receive an email any time there is an incoming deposit. If they sent a link in that email that asks for the date of purchase, users could manually enter the date so it would be classified correctly when we sell the coins. It would ensure that the proper information is sent to the IRS so users don't get audited for nonexistent "discrepancies."
When I send my coins from my private wallet to Coinbase, they automatically set the purchase date to the time the coins were received. This is incorrect. If we can set the purchase date upon receipt, it would save users a lot of headache during tax time. I had to spend several hours changing the purchase dates on TurboTax. There was a massive difference (over 60% less) in taxes I owed after properly classifying my trades as Long-term, however, if Coinbase sends the incorrect dates to the IRS, it will most likely result in a completely unnecessary audit.
