SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:
Title: Digital Asset Proceeds From Broker Transactions.
OMB Number: 1545-NEW
Form Number: 1099-DA.
Abstract: Form 1099-DA is used by brokers to report proceeds from
(and in some cases, basis for) digital asset dispositions to taxpayers
and to the IRS (Internal Revenue Code section 6045(a)). Taxpayers may
be required to recognize gain from these dispositions of digital
assets. Reporting is also required when brokers know or have reason to
know that a corporation in which a taxpayer owns digital assets, that
is also stock, has had a reportable change in control or capital
structure. Taxpayers may be required to recognize gain from the receipt
of cash, services, digital assets, or other property that was exchanged
for a digital asset that is also the corporation's stock.

revenue law. Generally, tax returns and tax return information are
confidential, as required by 26 U.S.C. 6103.
Request for Comments: Comments submitted in response to this notice
will be summarized and/or included in the request for OMB approval. All
