I'm wondering if I have to declare my staking rewards, which are less than $600, to the authorities. I'm not sure if there's a threshold for this kind of income.

Cryptocurrency rewards and earnings must be reported to the IRS regardless of whether you receive a Form 1099-MISC or Form 1099-NEC.

This regulation applies to all individuals who receive cryptocurrency as a form of payment or reward. The IRS expects taxpayers to self-report these earnings even if they do not receive a form from the paying entity.

The threshold for receiving a Form 1099-MISC or Form 1099-NEC is $600. If your cryptocurrency earnings exceed this amount, the paying company is required to send you one of these forms.

However, if your earnings are below $600, you are still responsible for reporting the income on your tax return. Failure to do so may result in penalties and interest charges.
