The latest Talking Tokens podcast 🎙️

For this week’s Thursday episode, I interviewed Miles Fuller, head of government solutions at TaxBit.

Miles was previously at the IRS for 15 years and was also a special assistant at the US Attorneys’ Office.

He has spent recent years as counsel to the IRS for digital asset tax issues, including the tax treatment of digital assets, examination techniques, information gathering, data interpretation, and tax calculations.

We discuss what’s new for 2025 crypto taxes, how the IRS is trying to close the “tax gap,” advice for US residents filing taxes this year, how to track capital gains and losses through crypto exchanges vs crypto wallets and more.

Talking Tokens episodes are released on Spotify and Apple Podcasts at 6AM EST or YouTube at 8AM EST every Tuesday and Thursday. Listen in!
