US Crypto Staking Tax Review

US crypto staking taxes are treated under IRS guidance as taxable income when rewards are received. Staking rewards are generally taxed as ordinary income based on their fair market value at the time they are credited to the user’s wallet. Later, if the staked crypto is sold, exchanged, or spent, it may also trigger capital gains tax, calculated from the value at receipt. Record-keeping is essential, including dates, values, and transactions. Regulations continue to evolve, so taxpayers should stay updated and consider professional tax advice to ensure compliance and accurate reporting.
