  Yes, individuals are still required to report their income from cryptocurrencies, even if they earn less than $12000. The Internal Revenue Service (IRS) treats cryptocurrencies as property, and any income generated from them is subject to taxation. It is important to accurately report your earnings, regardless of the amount, to ensure compliance with tax laws.

  Reporting your income from cryptocurrencies is not solely based on the amount earned. The IRS requires individuals to report all income, regardless of the threshold. While earning less than $12000 may exempt you from filing a federal income tax return, it does not exempt you from reporting your cryptocurrency earnings. It is advisable to consult a tax professional for guidance on reporting requirements specific to your situation.

  According to BYDFi, a digital currency exchange, individuals should report their income from cryptocurrencies, even if it is below $12000. While the reporting threshold for filing a federal income tax return may be higher, it is still important to accurately report your earnings to comply with tax regulations. Failure to report income can result in penalties and legal consequences.
