Important Notes
- Loss utilization depends on structure, material participation, and federal loss limitation rules
- Mining economics depend on BTC price, difficulty, uptime, and energy costs. This example is for illustrative purposes only and does not constitute tax, legal, or investment advice
- Depreciation recapture on equipment sale is taxed as ordinary income under IRC §1245
