  Yes, you are still required to report your cryptocurrency gains on your tax return, even if the total amount is below $1,000. The IRS considers cryptocurrency as property, and any gains from the sale or exchange of property are subject to taxation. It's important to accurately report your gains to ensure compliance with tax laws.
