ISDA Asks FASB to Consider Crypto Assets Accounting

On June 7, ISDA submitted a letter to the Financial Accounting Standards Board (FASB), asking it to consider adding crypto assets to its agenda. Members are concerned that crypto assets are currently accounted for as indefinite-lived intangible assets under topic 350. This practice is an issue for many entities that treat crypto assets as a means for investment and active trading. This accounting practice does not appropriately reflect the economics of the assets in the financial statements.
