I called [Coinbase Support]. Complete headache. You sent me the 1099-misc. “Please inform me where that cash is from?” Rather I obtained limitless runaround that finished with, “You require to consult your tax obligation expert”. Many thanks alot. I can’t think individuals still utilize them. And since I’m on the tirade, why do they reach stand up Quality? No person in blockchain cares what they believe.”
