Bitcoin holders under IRS scrutiny as thousands receive warning letters

In the last 60 days, the IRS sent thousands of warning letters to cryptocurrency holders, marking a significant increase. Many investors, including those with accurate tax filings, are receiving these letters due to missing cost basis data.

Starting in 2026, Form 1099-DA will be introduced, which may generate more IRS notifications. Wallet-to-wallet transfers complicate reporting, leading to potential issues even for compliant traders.
