Most persons did not report crypto transactions in 2017, figuring they could get away with it.
This is very tedious since you don't get a consolidated 1099-B with all your transactions.
See Form 8949 for how to report crypto transactions, it is done just like a stock security.
Without a 1099-B, your Box Category is "C" (Page 1) or "F" (Page 2).
IRS has become more interested now in getting the report and the associated tax revenue, going forward.
