#USCryptoStakingTaxReview US crypto staking tax review is looking pretty interesting right now. The IRS treats staking rewards as taxable income when you gain control over them, which means you'll pay income tax on the fair market value of the rewards at that time. Later, if you sell or dispose of those rewards, you'll also pay capital gains tax on any profit. Some key things to know: - *Reporting Staking Income*: You'll report staking rewards as "Other Income" on Form 1040 Schedule 1. - *Capital Gains*: Use Form 8949 and Schedule D to report gains or losses when you dispose of staking rewards. - *Tax Rates*: Short-term capital gains (held less than a year) are taxed at ordinary income rates, while long-term gains get more favorable rates. There are also some updates and proposals that might impact crypto staking taxes: - The Digital Asset PARITY Act proposes a 5-year deferral period for staking rewards, taxing them as ordinary income only after this period. - Lawmakers are urging the IRS to revise the "double taxation" rule, applying taxes only upon sale of staked assets.$BNB
