  Yes, even if you haven't sold any cryptocurrency, you may still need to report it on your taxes. In many countries, including the United States, cryptocurrency is treated as property for tax purposes. This means that any increase in the value of your cryptocurrency holdings may be subject to capital gains tax when you eventually sell. It's important to keep track of the value of your cryptocurrency, even if you haven't sold any, so that you can accurately report it on your tax return.

  If you haven't sold any cryptocurrency, you may not have any taxable events to report on your taxes. However, it's still a good idea to keep records of your cryptocurrency transactions, including purchases and transfers, in case you need to prove your ownership or calculate your cost basis in the future. Additionally, if you receive cryptocurrency as income, such as through mining or airdrops, you may need to report that as well. It's always best to consult with a tax professional to ensure you are meeting your tax obligations.
