What is the 30 day rule in crypto?｜The 30-Day (Bed and Breakfast) Rule - When the same type of token is disposed of and subsequently re-acquired within 30 days, the cost basis of the disposal is matched with the re-acquired tokens using the earliest purchased tokens first.
Could you please explain what the 30-day rule in the realm of cryptocurrency entails? I've heard about the Bed and Breakfast Rule, but I'm not entirely clear on its implications. When an individual disposes of a certain type of token and then promptly re-acquires it within a 30-day period, how does this rule affect the cost basis of the transaction? Does it involve matching the cost basis of the disposed tokens with the newly acquired ones, and if so, how does the system prioritize the earliest purchased tokens in this process? Thank you for clarifying this for me.
