  Cryptocurrency exchanges have to comply with GAAP accounting principles just like any other business. They need to record all financial transactions accurately and report them in accordance with GAAP guidelines. This includes properly recognizing revenue, categorizing expenses, and valuing assets. By following GAAP, cryptocurrency exchanges ensure that their financial statements are reliable and can be used by investors, auditors, and regulators to make informed decisions.
