  Sure! Coinbase is required by law to report certain cryptocurrency transactions to the IRS. They do this by filing Form 1099-K for U.S. customers who meet certain criteria. This form reports the total amount of cryptocurrency sales made through Coinbase during the year. It's important to note that Coinbase only reports transactions made on their platform, so if you have transactions on other exchanges or wallets, you'll need to report those separately to the IRS.
