  When determining the capitalization of cryptocurrencies in accounting, it is important to consider the guidance provided by accounting bodies such as the Financial Accounting Standards Board (FASB) and the International Financial Reporting Standards (IFRS). These standards provide frameworks for the recognition, measurement, and presentation of cryptocurrencies in financial statements. The FASB and IFRS require entities to assess the nature of cryptocurrencies and consider factors such as their intended use, market value, and liquidity. Additionally, the FASB and IFRS provide guidance on the classification of cryptocurrencies as either intangible assets or inventory. By following the guidance provided by these accounting bodies, entities can ensure accurate and consistent capitalization of cryptocurrencies.
