U.S. crypto investors must report sales and exchanges to the IRS starting in 2026 via new Form 1099-DA from exchanges.
U.S. crypto investors must prepare for new tax reporting in 2025, as centralized exchanges like Coinbase are required to send Form 1099-DA to the IRS by January 30, 2026, detailing gross proceeds from crypto sales and exchanges.
The form does not include cost basis, so taxpayers must track purchase prices themselves to calculate capital gains or losses.
This third-party reporting aims to boost compliance, as past IRS data showed only about 25% of investors voluntarily reported crypto taxes.
Discrepancies between the form and tax returns may trigger IRS notices.
The requirement applies only to exchange-based transactions, not peer-to-peer trades or self-custodied wallets.
Cost basis reporting will begin in 2026 for certain trades.
Investors should use secure wallets, avoid scams, and only invest money they can afford to lose.
