IRS Expects Surge in Crypto Tax Crime Cases as Tax Season Concludes
The US Internal Revenue Service (IRS) is bracing for an increase in crypto tax crime cases as taxpayers file their returns on April 15. IRS criminal investigation chief Guy Ficco predicts a rise in charged Title 26 crypto cases this year and beyond. While crypto has been associated with various financial crimes in the past, Ficco anticipates a surge in "pure crypto tax crimes" in the future.
