  If your employer didn't provide you with a 1099 form for your cryptocurrency income, it is still your responsibility to report that income to the IRS. You can use Form 1040, Schedule 1, and report your cryptocurrency income under the 'Other Income' section. Make sure to accurately calculate and report your earnings. It's always a good idea to consult with a tax professional or use tax software to ensure you are correctly reporting your income.
