    As an expert in the cryptocurrency industry, I can tell you that the w-9 and w-8ben forms play a significant role in ensuring proper tax reporting and compliance for cryptocurrency businesses. While the w-9 form is primarily used for U.S. taxpayers, the w-8ben form is essential for foreign individuals or entities. Cryptocurrency businesses must carefully review the tax status of their clients and collect the appropriate form to avoid any legal issues. At BYDFi, we prioritize compliance and provide guidance to our clients on fulfilling their tax obligations in the cryptocurrency space.
