Crowdfunding investment loss

[amyonghwee]

I invested in some portfolio (crowdfunding) in SeedInvest, which has changed to StartEngine, in 2017.

In 2022, one of them, FenSens went out of business. 

This year 2025, Sapient X just filed a dissolution and likely to be out of business.

Can I report these 2 losses in my 2025 tax returns?

Investment losses must be claimed in the year that they occurred.
