At its October 12, 2022, meeting, the FASB continued deliberating its project on the accounting for and disclosure of crypto assets and reached several decisions. Specifically, the Board tentatively decided to: Require all public and private entities to initially measure crypto assets at fair value in accordance with ASC 820. Subsequent changes in fair value would be recognized in earnings; not provide any measurement alternatives for situations in which a crypto asset does not have a quoted price in active markets; require entities to expense as incurred commissions and other transaction costs related to the acquisition of crypto assets unless industry-specific guidance stipulates otherwise.
