🧩 Connecting Your Ethereum Wallet to Awaken

Ethereum is at the heart of the decentralized ecosystem, and with Awaken, it's never been easier to track your on-chain transactions and generate crypto tax reports. Simply paste your public wallet address, and we’ll automatically pull your full Ethereum transaction history, including trades, transfers, NFTs, staking rewards, DeFi transactions and anything else you do on-chain.

Whether you use MetaMask, Ledger, Coinbase Wallet, or any other Ethereum-compatible wallet, Awaken supports seamless imports from Ethereum and all related EVM chains.


✅ Step-by-Step: Connecting Your Ethereum Wallet to Awaken

To connect your Ethereum wallet to Awaken:

  1. Go to the Accounts tab on Awaken

  2. Click Add Account

  3. Type Ethereum in the search bar

  4. Click Add Wallet

  5. Paste your public Ethereum wallet address (starts with 0x)

Awaken will begin syncing your Ethereum activity — including swaps, DeFi transactions, bridges, airdrops, NFT trades, and more.

📌 Note: Since Ethereum uses the standard EVM wallet format, adding your 0x address will also allow Awaken to pull in activity from other supported EVM chains you have used, including HyperLiquid, Arbitrum, Optimism, Polygon, Base, BNB Chain, Avalanche, and Blast. We’re also adding new chains all the time!


🔍 What Awaken Tracks on Ethereum

Once connected, Awaken automatically imports and classifies:

  • Swaps and DEX trades (e.g., Uniswap, 1inch)

  • NFT mints, purchases, sales, and transfers

  • Staking rewards

  • DeFi lending, borrowing, and farming activity

  • On-chain income from airdrops or work

  • Bridge activity to/from L2s or other chains

  • Wallet-to-wallet transfers and self-custody movement

We handle the categorization so you don’t have to manually tag or sort anything — your report is clean, organized, and audit-ready.


🌍 How to Do Ethereum Taxes with Awaken

Transactions on Ethereum can trigger multiple types of taxable events, depending on your country. These may include:

  • Capital gains for token swaps, NFT trades, and sales

  • Income tax for airdrops, staking rewards, or freelance payments

  • Deductible expenses, such as gas fees or bridge fees (depending on local law)

Awaken applies the tax treatment relevant to your location and generates ready-to-file reports. Check our international tax guide for your country’s rules: 📚 Global Crypto Tax Landscape 2025


🔗 Connect All Wallets and Exchanges Before Reviewing Your Transactions

To ensure your Awaken tax report is accurate and complete, it’s important to import every wallet and exchange you've used, not just your Ethereum wallet.

If you’ve ever:

  • Moved tokens from one wallet to another

  • Bridged funds across chains

  • Bought crypto on a centralized exchange

…you’ll need to import those accounts as well.

Head to the Awaken Integrations Hub to connect the rest of your wallets, exchanges, and CSVs. Once everything is added, you can confidently review your transaction history and download your fully reconciled tax report.
