Get your taxes done using TurboTax

Hi  @lnk-fr

The above article does not state that all forms of staking definitively is business income, rather, it provides circumstances in which they may be subject to self-employment tax for you to consider. If none of the above factors apply, then the correct way to enter staking income is to report as miscellaneous income on your 1040. 

I am including the most recent IRS guidance on this subject for your convenience: 

Taxpayers should continue to report all cryptocurrency, digital asset income

Thanks! Caroline B
