Hello:

Once a crypto company’s bankruptcy is settled and discharged and your crypto is deemed worthless it is an ordinary loss   An ordinary loss from a worthless or abandoned investment is a miscellaneous itemized deduction in the year of worthlessness/abandonment but is not deductible on your tax return because the Tax Cuts and Jobs Act of 2017 disallows miscellaneous itemized deductions for tax years 2018-2025.
