  The maximum amount of capital losses that can be deducted for cryptocurrency investments is $3,000 per year. This limit applies to both individuals and married couples filing jointly. If your losses exceed $3,000, you can carry forward the remaining losses to future years and deduct them against future capital gains. It's important to keep accurate records of your cryptocurrency transactions and consult with a tax professional to ensure you are correctly reporting and deducting your capital losses.
