Bitcoin

Good afternoon Davebreiholz,

 

Investing in Bitcoin will not effect your taxes until there is a disposition of the Bitcoin.  The disposition will result in a taxable gain or loss.

This is a good overview of cryptocurrency and the tax ramifications.

TurboTax has a great new, free, crypto tracking software that will help you track your investments.

Thank you for reaching out to the TurboTax Community.
