Crypto taxes vary depending on where you live and your tax offices guidance on the various transactions. However, in general, two taxes may apply for your BlockFi transactions.
BlockFi doesn't generally provide tax documents, however for US users, BlockFi may send a 1099-B form. Any US users who has earned more than $600 in interest, crypto bonuses or promotional payouts in a single financial year will be issued a 1099-B form.
Remember, whenever you receive a 1099 form, the IRS gets an identical copy.
