  The use of the LIFO (Last In, First Out) tax method in the cryptocurrency industry is subject to specific regulations and guidelines. According to the IRS, cryptocurrencies are treated as property for tax purposes. Therefore, the LIFO method can be used to determine the cost basis of the cryptocurrencies sold. However, it is important to note that the IRS has not provided explicit guidance on the use of the LIFO method specifically for cryptocurrencies. It is recommended to consult with a tax professional to ensure compliance with the relevant regulations.
