  Yes, Kucoin users in the US are subject to tax reporting requirements. The IRS considers cryptocurrencies as property, and any gains or losses from cryptocurrency transactions are subject to capital gains tax. This means that if you make a profit from selling or trading cryptocurrencies on Kucoin, you need to report it as taxable income. Failure to comply with tax reporting requirements can result in penalties and legal consequences. It is important to keep accurate records of your Kucoin transactions and consult with a tax professional to ensure compliance with tax regulations.
