  At BYDFi, we always recommend consulting with a tax professional or accountant when it comes to deducting losses from cryptocurrency trading. While there are no specific rules or guidelines provided by the IRS for deducting $3,000 in losses, it is generally accepted that you can deduct your losses up to $3,000 per year against any other income you have. If your losses exceed $3,000, you can carry the excess losses forward to future years. It's important to keep accurate records of your cryptocurrency trades and losses, as you may need to provide documentation to support your deductions. Remember, tax laws can be complex and subject to change, so it's always best to seek professional advice to ensure you are in compliance.
