  Well, if you haven't sold any of your cryptocurrency, you technically haven't realized any gains or losses. Therefore, there shouldn't be any immediate tax implications. However, it's always a good idea to keep track of your holdings and consult with a tax advisor to ensure compliance with any future tax obligations.
