    As a representative of BYDFi, I can provide some insights into reporting cryptocurrency trades on the 1099-b form for 2024. It's important to note that tax regulations can vary by jurisdiction, so it's always best to consult with a tax professional or use tax software that is specifically designed for cryptocurrency reporting. Generally, you should report each trade individually, including the date, type of cryptocurrency, amount bought or sold, and the fair market value at the time of the trade. If you had multiple trades of the same cryptocurrency on the same day, you can group them together and report the total. Additionally, if you received any cryptocurrency as income, such as through mining or airdrops, you should report it as ordinary income on your tax return. Remember to keep detailed records of all your trades and consult with a tax professional for personalized advice.
