  As an expert in the field, I can tell you that the IRS distinguishes between cryptocurrency income reported on a 1099-MISC and a 1099-K based on the type of transaction. If the income is from a business or self-employment activity, it would be reported on a 1099-MISC. On the other hand, if the income is from payment card transactions or third-party network transactions, it would be reported on a 1099-K. It's important to carefully review your income sources and accurately report them on the appropriate form to avoid any issues with the IRS.
