  As an expert in the cryptocurrency industry, I can tell you that reporting cryptocurrency earnings to the IRS is a crucial step to stay compliant with tax regulations. The tax forms you need to fill out depend on the type of cryptocurrency transactions you have made. If you have received cryptocurrency as payment for goods or services, you will need to fill out the Form 1099-MISC. If you have sold or exchanged cryptocurrency, you will need to complete the Form 8949 to report your capital gains or losses. It's important to keep accurate records of your cryptocurrency transactions and consult with a tax professional to ensure you are properly reporting your earnings. Remember, failing to report cryptocurrency earnings can result in penalties and legal consequences.
