  When buying crypto in your IRA, there are several tax implications you should be aware of. Firstly, any gains made from the sale or exchange of cryptocurrencies within your IRA are generally tax-deferred until you withdraw the funds from your account. However, if you withdraw the funds before reaching the age of 59 and a half, you may be subject to an early withdrawal penalty. Additionally, when you eventually withdraw the funds, the gains will be subject to ordinary income tax rates. It's important to consult with a tax professional to understand the specific tax implications based on your individual circumstances.
