IRS Clarifies How Clients Should Report Income From Crypto Currency

Partner Mark DiMichael spoke with Financial Advisor's Jeff Stimpson about the IRS requiring clients to report their bitcoin and other virtual currencies better. They are requiring taxpayers to track their crypto transactions and released guidance on how they're expected to report income.
