    Yes, you are required to include your 1099-S income from digital currencies when filing your taxes. The IRS considers digital currencies as property, and any income generated from them is subject to taxation. Make sure to report the income accurately and include it in the appropriate section of your tax return.

    Absolutely! The IRS has been cracking down on digital currency tax evasion, and failing to report your 1099-S income can lead to penalties and legal consequences. It's always better to be transparent and report all your income, including income from digital currencies, to avoid any trouble with the IRS.

It's important to comply with tax regulations and accurately report all sources of income. Failure to do so can result in penalties and audits. Consult with a tax professional if you have any specific questions or concerns about reporting your digital currency income.
