  Filling out form 8949 code M for cryptocurrency trades can be a bit tricky, but don't worry, I've got you covered! First, make sure you have all the necessary information, such as the date of each trade, the type of cryptocurrency traded, the cost basis, and the proceeds. Next, you'll need to determine whether each trade resulted in a gain or a loss. If it's a gain, enter the proceeds in column (d) and the cost basis in column (e). If it's a loss, enter the proceeds in column (g) and the cost basis in column (h). Remember to include all your trades, even if they resulted in a loss. Finally, calculate the total gain or loss for each category and transfer the totals to Schedule D. It's always a good idea to consult with a tax professional or use tax software to ensure accuracy and compliance with the latest tax regulations.
