IRS Crypto Reporting Rules Face Industry, GOP Ire

Treasury Department and IRS finalized rules requiring crypto exchanges to provide information on taxpayers’ buying and selling activities are meeting industry and Republican pushback. Centralized brokers must issue form 1099-DA, starting in 2026 for tax year 2025, and decentralized brokers are to start doing so in 2028 for tax year 2027. The form includes such things as personal data, gross proceeds on sales, and transaction dates. Crypto tax advisers bring up two themes about the new rules: First, it's challenging for some brokers to implement the infrastructure needed to comply with the reporting requirements because tracking transactions is a huge undertaking when trades happen so quickly. Second, some Congressional Republicans don't like the rule and have introduced a joint resolution to nullify parts of the regulations. In this episode of Talking Tax, Bloomberg Tax reporter Rebecca Chen chats with Jessalyn Dean, vice president of tax information reporting at digital asset tax and accounting platform Ledgible, on the requirements and enforcement efforts, and how they might change under the second Trump administration. —Produced by Mo Barrow.
