  At BYDFi, we understand the importance of avoiding common mistakes when filing crypto taxes. One common mistake is not properly categorizing your cryptocurrency transactions. It's crucial to accurately classify each transaction as a purchase, sale, trade, or mining income to ensure proper tax reporting. Another common mistake is not considering the holding period for capital gains tax purposes. If you hold your cryptocurrencies for more than a year before selling, you may qualify for long-term capital gains tax rates, which can significantly reduce your tax liability. Lastly, not taking advantage of tax deductions and credits related to cryptocurrency activities is a common mistake. Make sure to explore deductions for mining expenses, transaction fees, and any other eligible expenses to minimize your tax burden.
