Ethereum (classic) accounting data generator for Python
Here's a python tool to generate CSV files suitable for accounting purposes, for incoming and outgoing Ethereum (classic) transactions:https://github.com/morphex/ethereum-classic-taxman
It will start with one main address, and then generate a CSV with transactions for that address, and one CSV for each address that receives ETH/ETC from that main address.
Crypto currencies were hyped up for a while, but given how much time has gone by, it looks like they are here to stay. I got some .com vibes from this crypto hype, but given that crypto currencies and related technologies will make finance-related activities such as loans cheaper and more accessible for the lender, and transactions in general cheaper and more flexible, there is little doubt left in my mind that it will work.
Betting on the right horse(s) is another matter however.
Regardless, taxes have to be paid, so I created this script that will connect to a geth/core-geth node and download all transactions related to a given address. I saw there were different services that offered x amounts of queries for y amount of money, and that's nice, but as a brogrammer and a small business owner I liked the idea of being able to be completely independent of such services.
The script comes with a test and test address 0x222f266B603e4fa6D5605b5ec1F1C86E35C19F7D (not owned by anyone I know), and running it generates the following CSV:
From,To,Hash,Value,Value USD,GAS Price ETH,Gas price USD,GAS Price Gwei,Block,Timestamp,Timestamp date,Timestamp time,Exchange rate
0x45d022c169c1198c29F9CBe58C666fc8D1Bb41f1,0x222f266B603e4fa6D5605b5ec1F1C86E35C19F7D,0xbdf64741321bf426aaf6c8903069b907335856c6a5756f0429d3f504d8b52cb0,0.806234,22.030682,0.000021,0.000574,1000000000,14671158,1646599200,2022-03-06,21:40:00,27.325415
Which looks right to me. I've also tested it against other ETH addresses and the calculations look correct. The precision of the last column rate was too high and it created a number which wasn't real, so just now I added a 6-point precision to floats generated in the CSV. This is also just enough to capture the standard low fee for ETC transactions.
