  Yes, wash sales tax rules do apply to digital currencies. Just like with traditional assets, if you sell a digital currency at a loss and repurchase it within a certain timeframe, the loss may be disallowed for tax purposes. It's important to consult with a tax professional to understand the specific rules and regulations in your jurisdiction.

  Absolutely! The wash sales tax rules are the same for digital currencies as they are for traditional assets. If you engage in a wash sale with a digital currency, you may not be able to claim the loss for tax purposes. Make sure to keep accurate records of your transactions and consult with a tax advisor to ensure compliance with the rules.
