## Resource

The IRS is changing how it identifies crypto investors who may have underreported their income. In this episode, Clinton Donnelly, founder of CryptoTaxAudit, explains how artificial intelligence and tools like Palantir’s SNAP platform are helping the IRS move beyond outdated audit systems and focus on higher-probability audit targets. If you have traded crypto and your reporting is not fully accurate, this shift matters. In this episode: How the IRS is using AI to improve audit targeting Why many past audits resulted in no change How Palantir’s SNAP platform narrows down audit candidates Why crypto investors are a growing focus for enforcement How Form 1099-DA will increase IRS visibility What IRS Letters 6173 and 6174 mean What to do if you receive an IRS crypto notice Why contacting the IRS directly may not be the best first step Learn more or get help: https://www.cryptotaxaudit.com/crypto-tax-consultation ⚖️ DISCLAIMER: This episode is for educational and informational purposes only and does not constitute legal, tax, or financial advice.
