    What are the tax implications of 'daytrading' cryptocurrencies? I've been a longtime securities 'daytrader', where my p&l has been considered 'ordinary income' on my schedule c (iirc) - can I treat daytrading cryptocurrencies in the same way as daytrading stocks etc., or does it open me up to capital gains or other tax issues trading cryptocurrencies?
