  Yes, you are required to report your cryptocurrency trades on your tax return. The IRS considers cryptocurrencies as property, and any gains or losses from trading or selling cryptocurrencies are subject to taxation. Make sure to keep track of your transactions and consult a tax professional for guidance on how to accurately report your cryptocurrency trades.
