Paragraph after h1: "Navigating cryptocurrency taxes can feel like traversing a maze, but with clear rules and disciplined record‑keeping you can stay compliant and minimize surprises at filing time. Below is a practical roadmap for traders and crypto‑affiliates covering the core requirements, documentation habits, and filing strategies that keep you on the right side of the IRS (or your local tax authority)."
Chinese: " navigating cryptocurrency taxes can feel like traversing a maze, but with clear rules and disciplined record‑keeping you can stay compliant and minimize surprises at filing time. Below is a practical roadmap for traders and crypto‑affiliates covering the core requirements, documentation habits, and filing strategies that keep you on the right side of the IRS (or your local tax authority)." We'll translate fully: "加密货币税务可能让人感觉像在迷宫中徘徊,但只要掌握清晰的规则并保持 disciplined 的记录习惯,您就能够保持合规并在申报时最小化意外。以下是一份实用路线图,适用于交易者和加密货币联盟营销者,涵盖核心要求、记录习惯和申报策略,帮助您站在美国国税局(或当地税务机关)的正确一边。"
Now list under 1:
- Property, Not Currency: The IRS classifies virtual currency as property. Every disposition—selling, swapping, spending, or receiving as payment—triggers a capital gain or loss.
- Ordinary Income Events: Mining rewards, staking yields, airdrops, and affiliate referral payouts are treated as ordinary income at the fair market value (FMV) on the day you receive them.
- Like‑Kind Exchange No Longer Applies: Prior to 2018, some argued that crypto‑to‑crypto swaps qualified for Section 1031 like‑kind exchange treatment. The Tax Cuts and Jobs Act eliminated this, so every swap is a taxable event.
Translate:
- 资产而非货币:IRS 将虚拟货币归类为财产。每一次处置——出售、兑换、消费或作为付款收到——都会触发资本收益或损失。
- 普通收入事件:挖矿奖励、质押收益、空投以及联盟推荐付款均按您收到当天的公允市场价值(FMV)计为普通收入。
- 类似类属交换不再适用:2018 年之前,有人主张加密货币之间的互换可适用于第 1031 条的类似类属交换待遇。《减税与就业法案》取消了此规定,因此每一次兑换都是应税事件。
Now section 2: Track Every Transaction.
Paragraph: "Accurate records are the foundation of a defensible tax return. For each transaction capture:"
Chinese: "准确的记录是可防御税务申报的基础。对于每笔交易,请记录以下信息:"
Then table with headers: Data Point, Why It Matters.
Translate headers: 数据点, 为什么重要
Rows:
Date & Time (UTC) -> Establishes holding period & FMV Transaction Type (buy, sell, swap, spend, receive) -> Determines gain/loss vs. income Counterparty Wallet/Exchange ID -> Helpful for audit trails Amount of Crypto Involved -> Basis calculation USD (or local fiat) Value at Transaction -> FMV for gain/loss or income Fees Paid (in crypto or fiat) -> Adjusts basis or proceeds Transaction ID / Hash -> Immutable reference
Translate each.
Date & Time (UTC) -> 日期及时间(UTC) -> 建立持有期及公允市场价值 Transaction Type (buy, sell, swap, spend, receive) -> 交易类型(买入、卖出、兑换、消费、收到) -> 决定是资本收益/损失还是收入 Counterparty Wallet/Exchange ID -> 交易对方钱包/交易所 ID -> 有助于审计追踪 Amount of Crypto Involved -> 涉及的加密货币数量 -> 基础计算 USD (or local fiat) Value at Transaction -> 交易时的美元(或当地法币)价值 -> 用于收益/损失或收入的公允市场价值 Fees Paid (in crypto or fiat) -> 已付费用(加密货币或法币) -> 调整基础或所得款项 Transaction ID / Hash -> 交易 ID / 哈希 -> 不可更改的参考
Tip paragraph: "Tip: Use a dedicated spreadsheet or a crypto‑tax software (e.g., CoinTracker, Koinly, TokenTax) that can import CSVs from exchanges and wallets, then export a Form 8949‑ready CSV."
Chinese: "提示:使用专用电子表格或加密税务软件(如 CoinTracker、Koinly、TokenTax),它们能够导入交易所和钱包的 CSV 文件,然后导出可直接用于填写表格 8949 的 CSV。"
Now section 3: Separate Trading Activity from Affiliate Earnings.
Paragraph: "Traders: Focus on capital gains/losses. Maintain a running ledger of cost basis (FIFO, Specific Identification, or HIFO if your jurisdiction allows) and calculate net gain/loss per dispossession."
Chinese: "交易者:重点关注资本收益/损失。维持一份运营中的成本基础账目(如您所在司法管辖区允许,可采用 FIFO、特定识别或 HIFO),并计算每次处置的净收益/损失。"
Next bullet: "Affiliates: Treat referral payouts, bounty rewards, or referral‑program tokens as ordinary income. Record the FMV at receipt; later dispositions of those tokens follow the same capital‑gain rules as any other crypto."
Chinese: "联盟营销者:将推荐付款、赏金奖励或推荐计划代币视为普通收入。在收到时记录其公允市场价值;之后对这些代币的处置遵循与其他加密货币相同的资本收益规则。"
Best Practice paragraph: "Best Practice: Keep two separate ledgers or tag transactions in your software (e.g., label affiliate payouts as “Income” and trades as “Capital”). This simplifies Schedule 1 (additional income) vs. Schedule D (capital gains) preparation."
Chinese: "最佳实践:保持两份独立的账簿,或在软件中对交易进行标记(例如,将联盟付款标记为 “收入”,将交易标记为 “资本”)。这可以简化附表 1(额外收入)与附表 D(资本收益)的准备工作。"
Section 4: Know the Reporting Forms.
Table headers: Form, Purpose, When to Use.
Translate: 表格, 用途, 何时使用
Rows:
Form 8949 -> Lists each capital transaction (date, acquired, sold, proceeds, cost basis, gain/loss) -> Required if you have any capital gains/losses
Schedule D -> Summarizes totals from Form 8949 -> Attached to Form 1040
Schedule 1 (Additional Income) -> Reports ordinary income like mining, staking, airdrops, affiliate payouts -> Required if you have any ordinary crypto income
Schedule C (if self‑employed) -> Reports self‑employment income, deductible expenses (e.g., marketing costs, hardware) -> Use if you run affiliate marketing as a business
FBAR (FinCEN Form 114) & FATCA Form 8938 -> Foreign financial account reporting if you hold crypto on foreign exchanges exceeding thresholds -> Required if thresholds met
Translate each.

Schedule D -> 汇总表格 8949 的总计 -> 附随于表格 1040
Schedule 1 (Additional Income) -> 报告诸如挖矿、质押、空投、联盟付款等普通收入 -> 如果您有任何普通加密收入则必需
Schedule C (if self‑employed) -> 报告自雇收入,可抵扣费用(例如营销成本、硬件) -> 如果您以企业身份开展联盟营销则使用
FBAR (FinCEN Form 114) & FATCA Form 8938 -> 若您在国外交易所持有的加密货币超过门槛,则需报告外国金融账户 -> 达到门槛时必需
Section 5: Leverage Tax‑Loss Harvesting.
Paragraph: "If you realize losses near year‑end, consider selling losing positions to offset gains. Remember the wash‑sale rule does not currently apply to crypto (IRS
