  Yes, money received from a friend in the form of cryptocurrency is generally taxable. In most countries, including the United States, cryptocurrency is treated as property for tax purposes. This means that any gains or income from cryptocurrency transactions, including receiving money from a friend, may be subject to capital gains tax or income tax. It's important to consult with a tax professional or accountant to understand the specific tax laws and regulations in your jurisdiction.
