Short-term crypto gains on assets held a year or less are taxed at the ordinary-income brackets (10%-37%), while coins kept longer than a year qualify for the lower long-term capital-gains rates of 0%, 15%, or 20%.
Mining rewards, staking yield, salary, and airdrops are ordinary income when received, and each later sale or swap triggers a separate capital-gains calculation: accurate cost-basis records are therefore essential for completing Form 8949 on your return.
