Could you please elaborate on the process of reporting
cryptocurrency capital gains and losses for tax purposes? I'm particularly interested in understanding how to determine the fair market value of digital currencies, which transactions should be reported, and whether there are any specific forms or procedures I need to follow. Additionally, I'd like to know if there are any tax implications or deductions I should be aware of when dealing with crypto assets. Thank you for your assistance in clarifying this complex topic.
