    Sure! The IRS requires cryptocurrency exchanges to provide information about their users' transactions. This includes the user's name, address, social security number, and the amount and type of cryptocurrency bought or sold. The exchanges are also required to report any gains or losses from these transactions.

    The IRS wants to ensure that individuals are accurately reporting their cryptocurrency transactions for tax purposes. By requiring exchanges to provide this information, the IRS can cross-reference it with individuals' tax returns to ensure compliance.
