  Yes, you are required to report your cryptocurrency transactions on your 1099 form. The IRS considers cryptocurrency to be property, so any gains or losses from buying, selling, or trading cryptocurrency are subject to taxation. It's important to accurately report your transactions to avoid any potential penalties or audits.
