  When it comes to reporting cryptocurrency trades on a brokerage account, there are specific tax forms and documents that you need to be aware of. The most common form is the Form 1099-B, which is used to report the proceeds from the sale of stocks, bonds, and other securities. However, not all cryptocurrency exchanges issue Form 1099-B, so you may need to keep track of your trades and report them manually. Additionally, you may also need to file Form 8949 to report your capital gains and losses from cryptocurrency trades. It's important to consult with a tax professional or refer to the IRS guidelines to ensure you are reporting your cryptocurrency trades correctly.
