Nope. I don't buy things in crypto only because of the reporting burden. Every cup of coffee bought with crypto has to be reported on a tax return.

You should.
And then report every cup of coffe on your tax return.
And file on actual physical paper, preferably printed with a font that's hard to machine-read.
It's reported as a security - other, which is laid out like the stock trades 1099. Your taxable amount is the difference in price between what you paid for the currency and what you "sold" it for (both in USD).
If you're talking about the US, I think you're wrong: you need to declare all your hobby income, and since 2018, you can't deduct hobby expenses.

That's annoying. Would be nice if they didn't keep changing things around all the time.
