  When it comes to reporting cryptocurrency gains to the IRS, there are specific forms and documents that you'll need to use. The main form you'll need is Form 8949, which is used to report capital gains and losses from the sale or exchange of assets, including cryptocurrencies. On this form, you'll need to provide details of each transaction, such as the date of acquisition, the date of sale, the purchase price, the sale price, and any associated fees. Additionally, you'll also need to include this information on your Schedule D, which is used to calculate and report your overall capital gains and losses for the year. It's important to keep accurate records of your cryptocurrency transactions and consult with a tax professional if you have any questions or concerns.
