Could you elaborate on the tax reporting obligations of cryptocurrency exchanges? Are they required to report transaction details, such as the buyer, seller, and amount involved, to tax authorities? Do these regulations vary across different jurisdictions? What are the potential consequences for exchanges that fail to comply with these tax reporting requirements? How do these reporting requirements impact the privacy and security of cryptocurrency transactions? Additionally, how do these regulations compare to traditional financial institutions' tax reporting obligations?
