A growing number of Celsius users are grappling with complex tax implications due to crypto loss claims, igniting heated discussions around theft loss deductions under IRC § 165(c)(2). Many have turned to online courses for help, but the affordability of these resources is becoming a contentious issue.
As tax season heats up, those affected by the Celsius fiasco are learning to navigate a tangled web of regulations and financial loss. Community members who once traded crypto are now trying to make sense of their tax obligations while dealing with the emotional fallout of significant losses. Amidst the chaos, many are voicing concerns about high costs associated with tax preparation resources, despite expressing gratitude for the support that is available.
