If your 1099-DA shows numbers that seem way higher than your actual crypto profits, you’re not alone.

This is one of the most common points of confusion for crypto investors. Many exchanges report total proceeds instead of cost basis, which can make your gains look far bigger than they really are.

In this episode, Clinton Donnelly explains why this happens, how cost basis actually works, and what the IRS expects you to report.

You’ll also learn why moving between wallets and exchanges can break tracking, and what kind of records you need to keep in case you’re ever audited.

If you’ve looked at your crypto tax forms and thought, “this can’t be right,” this will make it clear.

Cashing out crypto isn’t as simple as moving funds to your bank. Many transactions are delayed, flagged, or even rejected due to compliance and anti-money laundering (AML) rules.

In this episode:

• Why banks reject crypto transfers
• How AML rules affect crypto cash-outs
• What “source of funds” means in practice
• Common mistakes that trigger compliance flags
• How to prepare for large crypto withdrawals
• The role of tax reporting, including 1099-DA
