  As a tax expert, I can help you with that. When it comes to reporting income from cryptocurrency, you will need to file Form 1040, Schedule 1, which is used to report additional income sources. Additionally, if you received any cryptocurrency as a result of mining or staking, you may also need to file Form 8949 to report capital gains or losses. It's important to keep detailed records of your cryptocurrency transactions and consult with a tax professional to ensure accurate reporting.
