    Yes, you can deduct capital gains losses from your cryptocurrency trading against your overall income. This can help to offset any gains you may have made from other investments and reduce your overall tax liability. However, it's important to keep in mind that there are certain rules and limitations when it comes to deducting capital losses. For example, you can only deduct losses against capital gains, not against ordinary income. Additionally, there may be limits on the amount of losses you can deduct in a given year. It's always a good idea to consult with a tax professional or accountant to ensure that you are taking advantage of all available deductions and following the proper procedures.
