  When it comes to claiming losses on cryptocurrency, the documentation you need will depend on your country's tax laws and regulations. In general, you should keep records of your cryptocurrency transactions, including purchase and sale receipts, exchange statements, and any other relevant documents. It's also a good idea to keep track of the fair market value of the cryptocurrencies at the time of the transactions, as this information may be needed to calculate your losses. Consulting with a tax professional or accountant who specializes in cryptocurrency taxation can provide you with specific guidance on the documentation requirements in your jurisdiction.
