  1099 b notices are like the IRS's way of keeping tabs on your cryptocurrency investments. If you've made any taxable transactions, such as selling or exchanging cryptocurrencies, the exchange you used will send you a 1099 b notice. This notice will detail the proceeds from the transactions, as well as any associated cost basis. It's important to keep track of these notices and report the information accurately on your tax return to avoid any potential issues with the IRS.
