Crypto investors in the U.S. are significantly underreporting their sales to tax authorities, according to Frank Chaparro. Citing Bloomberg as a source, Chaparro notes that between 12 and 21 percent of Americans own cryptocurrency, but just 6.5 percent have reported sales to the Internal Revenue Service.
The data highlights a substantial gap between crypto ownership and compliance with U.S. tax reporting requirements. Authorities and analysts are likely to look closely at these figures as regulation and enforcement surrounding crypto assets continue to evolve.
Chaparro has recently reported on large-scale investments and market moves in the crypto sector. He highlighted Kalshi's reported $22 billion valuation and ICE's $600 million commitment to Polymarket. Separately, he noted Citigroup's search for a leader to oversee AI and blockchain integration. These developments reflect ongoing activity across digital asset markets and traditional finance.
