I'm a bit confused about the reporting requirements for cryptocurrencies. If I don't sell my crypto assets, do I still need to report them? I mean, if they're just sitting in my wallet and not generating any income or being used for transactions, does that mean I'm not obligated to disclose them?"
"I've heard that some countries require you to report all crypto holdings, even if you don't sell them. Is that true? And if it is, what are the reasons behind this requirement? Is it to track potential tax evasion or is there some other purpose?"
"Also, if I do need to report my crypto holdings, how do I do it? Is there a specific form or online platform I should use? And what kind of information do I need to provide? Just the value of my assets or more detailed information about each individual coin or token?"
"Lastly, are there any penalties for not reporting my crypto holdings if I'm supposed to? Could I face fines or other consequences if I accidentally overlook this reporting requirement?

This is the case unless the purchased cryptocurrencies have been sold or disposed of in some other manner. This ruling is based on the fact that cryptocurrencies are treated as property for tax purposes.

Therefore, as long as the crypto assets are held and not converted into fiat currency or used to purchase goods and services, there is no taxable event that triggers the need for reporting.
