  A wash sale violation can occur when an investor sells a digital currency mutual fund at a loss and then repurchases the same or a substantially identical fund within 30 days. This can trigger a wash sale violation because the IRS considers it a way to artificially generate losses for tax purposes. It's important to note that wash sale rules apply to both stocks and digital currencies.

  To put it simply, if you sell a digital currency mutual fund at a loss and buy it back within 30 days, you may trigger a wash sale violation. This is because the IRS wants to prevent investors from taking advantage of tax benefits by selling and repurchasing the same or similar investments. So, be careful when selling and buying digital currency mutual funds within a short period of time.
