  As a representative of BYDFi, I would recommend using FIFO for tracking cryptocurrency transactions. FIFO provides a more accurate and transparent method of tracking your transactions, which can be beneficial for tax reporting and regulatory compliance. It ensures that the oldest purchases are sold first, reflecting the actual order of transactions. However, it's important to consult with a tax professional to ensure compliance with local regulations and to determine the best accounting method for your specific circumstances.
