It appears that the IRS is in a real bind. They've issued so many tax returns for the 2022 tax year that their printers have practically gone on strike. Apparently they weren't expecting so many people to cash in on their crypto losses. It's like they didn't see the writing on the blockchain.
And who's to blame for all of this? Those lovable scamps, the crypto investors. They're like a bunch of toddlers playing with daddy's credit card, only instead of buying toys, they're buying digital currencies that are about as stable as a Jenga tower in a hurricane.
Remember the 2017 bull run? It was like the Wild West of finance. People were throwing their life savings into Bitcoin and praying to the blockchain gods for a miracle. But when the market turned in 2018, it was like a game of financial musical chairs, and everyone was left standing without a chair. Did anyone learn their lesson then? It doesn't appear so.
Now we're in the midst of another bear market, and the crypto investors are feeling the pain. They're losing money faster than a magician loses their audience's attention. Let's not forget that we're also in the middle of a once-in-a-lifetime financial crisis for the second time in 15 years. Maybe they meant 'once-in-a-lifetime' for your childhood dog.
Everyone is hoping the markets turn around soon, or they'll all be camping out in front of the IRS's office, holding up signs that say, "Will work for tax returns." Surely no one wants to be that person. It's like being the only one in a clown car without a seatbelt.
