  As a third-party expert, I can provide some insights into the tax implications of holding Navy IRA investments in cryptocurrencies. The IRS treats cryptocurrencies as property, which means that any gains or losses from the sale or exchange of cryptocurrencies may be subject to capital gains tax. If you hold your cryptocurrencies in a Navy IRA account, the tax treatment will depend on the type of IRA you have. In a traditional IRA, any distributions from the account will be taxed as ordinary income. In a Roth IRA, qualified distributions are tax-free. However, it's important to note that there are contribution limits and withdrawal rules for IRAs, so it's advisable to consult with a tax professional to ensure compliance with tax regulations and optimize your tax strategy.
