    Paul Barron and David Kemmerer unpack the seismic shift coming to cryptocurrency taxation with the introduction of the 1099 DA form for the 2025 tax year. As brokers begin reporting crypto transactions on a per-wallet basis, investors face both new compliance challenges and strategic opportunities—from leveraging tax-loss harvesting to offset gains (with no wash-sale rule restrictions, unlike traditional securities) to understanding how DeFi yields are treated as ordinary income while crypto-backed loans remain non-taxable events. The discussion cuts through the confusion surrounding capital gains reporting, warns against the pitfalls of overreporting due to misunderstood 1099 forms, and offers practical guidance on everything from disposing of worthless tokens to utilizing carry-forward losses indefinitely, making it a must-listen for anyone navigating the increasingly complex regulatory landscape of digital asset investing.~ Looking for the best tax havens for Crypto?
