  Yes, crypto transaction fees are generally considered taxable and should be reported on your tax return. The IRS treats cryptocurrency as property, so any fees incurred during the buying, selling, or trading of cryptocurrencies are subject to taxation. It's important to keep track of these fees and report them accurately to avoid any potential issues with the IRS.
